The Ball by Kathryn Trainor

Founded in 2006 by artist and mother Stacy Phillips, Milkbarn was born from a simple love of family and creativity. What began as hand-sewn bibs at a farmhouse kitchen table has grown into a cherished children’s lifestyle brand, blending whimsical storytelling with timeless design. Rooted in the rolling hills north of San Francisco and now inspired by life in Tennessee, Milkbarn’s aesthetic is a heartfelt balance of vintage and modern, rustic and refined. Each piece celebrates childhood wonder through the magical collaboration between Stacy and her daughter, artist Haley Hunt, whose hand-drawn prints bring to life a world where giraffes graze redwood forests and bumblebees dance with whales. At Milkbarn, every creation—whether a garment, blanket, or book—invites families to share in the beauty, imagination, and love that define our world.
