It all started in 2001. Tereson Dupuy, the founder of FuzziBunz diapers, was just starting to bring on retailers to help her sell her crafty pocket-diaper invention. She says, at the time, she contacted Kelly to see if she'd be willing to sell FuzziBunz diapers, even though they were a new, relatively unknown product. "Of course Kelly took on the challenge and has been selling them ever since!" says Tereson.
The rest is history. Today, FuzziBunz continues to be one of Kelly's Closet's top selling diapers. "The diapers have come a long way over the years and the quality is the best it has ever been," says Kelly. "Plus, FuzziBunz has been one of the original leaders in growing the entire cloth diaper marketplace, something all of us are grateful for."
Tereson says she believes that Kelly's success is due in large part to the way she runs her business. "She is very professional in running her business and everyone can see that she's very committed to marketing and constantly thinking outside of the box."
In an industry where retailers and diaper manufacturers come and go, both Kelly's Closet and FuzziBunz have been around since the beginning.
"I feel that we have both stuck around so long because both FuzziBunz and Kelly's Closet are committed to continued growth and prosperity. I have seen many businesses discontinue their diaper business (either making them or selling them) when their children grow out of diapers and move on to some other stage of life. I think I can speak for both Kelly and myself that our businesses are like another child to us - just as we watch our own children grow, we carefully nurture our companies and watch them grow, develop and mature and don't plan on giving our "children" up anytime soon," says Tereson.

Kelly's Closet would like to commend FuzziBunz diapers for continuing to make an excellent product and for working together with Kelly's Closet to continue to make this world a little greener... one bum at a time!

I keep hearing people talk about FuzziBunz Diapers. Currently I don't own any, but I think I will get a diaper or two to try out next time I place an ordeer. Getting started in cloth diapering can be pretty overwhelming, but reading posts like that, about how FuzziBunz got its start, help to give me some direction on what to buy & try.
I love Fuzzi Bunz Perfect Fit diapers. It's the only thing I use for my daughter.
I love my fuzzibunz!!
They are great diapers.
It is interesting to hear the history of the modern cloth diaper. Fuzzibunz has really played a big role! Thanks for sharing this story!
Fuzzibunz was my very first cloth diaper experience! And it's what hooked me! :D
