About Us
The Team
Snuggle Butts is a family run, veteran owned bamboo clothing company located in Richmond Hill, Georgia.
The company was founded by husband and wife team, Alaina and Cody Newsome, in August of 2022. After having their first child in December 2021 they, like many new parents, were introduced to a wide variety of clothing for their little one. After lots of trial and error, bamboo onesies were making their way onto their daughter far more often than other onesies. Alaina and Cody began to get passionate about bamboo after learning about the benefits! Alaina had always dreamed of using her creativity and out of box thinking to launch her own unique clothing line. While Alaina was out on maternity leave, the couple started actively brainstorming ideas to create their own bamboo brand! They just knew the time was now! And, that is how Snuggle Butts was born!
