OUR STORY
Giplings, Mama Made
When Giplings started I was a homeschool mom of 5, navigating the beautiful chaos of daily life while cherishing each moment with my children. It was in those simple, everyday moments that the image of a mama duck and her ducklings continued to resurface. Then one night, the image of a simple duckling came to me. So while everyone slept, I sketched it out and jotted down the name Giplings.
The goal was simple: to build a brand that supports mamas and their children through every stage of life. Moms are natural multitaskers, always balancing fun, learning, and everyday necessities. Giplings was created to bring all of those pieces together through thoughtfully designed gifts for growing.

A FREE GIFT
Giplings’ first product was a mom bag designed to blend both function and style. After searching endlessly for a bag that truly did both—and coming up empty-handed—I turned to my own sewing and design skills to create what became our Slouch Bag. As a special touch, I included a small free gift. Because encouraging reading was important to both me and my children, I chose a simple bookmark shaped like our duckling logo.
I didn’t realize it at the time, but that small addition became the very first Duck-links™. Those free bookmarks quickly grew more popular than the bags themselves, taking on a life of their own and shaping the future of Giplings.
