Galanolefki – Unveiling the New Maddie Flops’ International Collection


Hello to all!

We have just decided on our first true flip flop design collection! It’s called the International Collection, inspired by the flags, foods, and fun of the countries of our world! Just because DD (Darling Daughter) and I can’t travel as much as we’d both like doesn’t mean we can’t give our feet a treat…and, now, so can you!

The first country that inspired us is Greece; so we started the galanolefki or kianolefki line. The former has been inspiring DD for a while now, thanks to myths and adventure tales both ancient and new, photos from my pre-DD trip to Greece, and, of course, all shades of DD’s favourite colour: blue – from ultramarine to azure to turquoise!

So, here’s a peek at what DD has designed and made so far, what we’re fondly calling the galanolefki (the “blue-white”) line, inspired by Greece’s flag:

If you feel inspired to order a pair, please shoot us an e-mail at theoriginalmaddie@gmail.com, include details such as colour palette you’d like (or, if you’d like one of these, simply “galanolefki” in the subject line will do!), size and quantity, and how to send you a PayPal invoice for your review. Remember that this is a 10-year-old’s cottage industry, her first entrepreneurial foray, but she is quick to fulfil orders – with a 48 hour turnaround time!

Wishing you Peaceful Parenting,

The Original Maddie! 🙂
