How? Yes, how is it possible that a sling can cost $1,200?  The answer, Laotian silk.  Sakura Bloom’s rare, handcrafted silk is produced using labor-intensive weaving and dying techniques.  Natural plant dyes bring out the unique weave of this special fabric.

How? Again, how?  How can you let your baby near something this expensive, let alone put her in it, and not expect the usual baby mess that occurs, i.e. spit up.  Well, you don’t.  All Sakura Bloom Slings are machine washable on a cold, gentle cycle.
