Feb 10 be obsessed, dwellstudio layette
Email Post Print Post

Can one have too much Dwellstudio in their (baby's) life?  I'll let you answer that one, though i did feel a bit awkward when my baby son was dressed in the Gio Aqua Playsuit (cute!), with a Plus Aqua Bib on (slobber!) and lightly covered with a Gio Aqua Stroller Blanket. Too much?

The new layette collection by Dwellstudio is colorful, organic and... adds to the obsession. And? You'd win for the best baby shower gift, hands down.

If i had a girl, i'd totally go for the Gio Lemon Playsuit, love the gathered-detail at the neck!

Okay now. Go Look.

Feb 8 toys & decor: david weeks
Email Post Print Post

We all like wood toys, because, then, we can at least leave them out, show them off & not hide them like the plastics. Maybe that's an impractical perfect toy world?

Whatever the case, David Weeks' wood toy objects are not only amazing design-wise, but eco-friendly (made of sustainable beech wood) and non-toxic as well . Again, check to see if the plastics can say this!

And while the David Weeks' toy objects are not intended for small children (as all the small parts move & twist and could potentially pinch!) an older child would have a grand time twisting & turning Ursa or Cubebot. Also: dignified bookshelf decor?

The pricetags are not cheap, though you can bring a small Cubebot home for a teeny $25.

Shop David Weeks!

Yes, Harry Allen. Hot pink piggy banks & gold trucks.

Who else has the nerve to do... that?

Cast from resin and marble the Pig Bank's price tag may seem a bit steep to hold a bunch of pennies. But consider this: it can hold up $10,000 in dollar bills!

And the Truck? Not for the kids. It's a catch all bowl, to clarify.

Shop Harry Allen!

Jan 25 dwellstudio... furniture!
Email Post Print Post

Look!! Dwellstudio has expanded their modern nursery empire to include ...furniture! We're all in love -- so let me introduce:

The mid-century inspired Century Crib & Dresser (with changing table topper), available in 3 finishes. How amazing are those legs!?

And gliders? Dwellstudio has 2:  Thompson & Savoy, available with matching ottomans in a myriad of fabric options.

My favorite: the Savoy Glider 'linen ash'. Classy!

Singgih Kartono had me at the wood radio! A radio, so old school. Sort of expensive, and i would not let the little  kids play with it, but a true design piece that has won a multitude of awards.

See what i mean?

Jan 18 great gear: sakura bloom
Email Post Print Post

I carry my babies in a sling .... for much of their 1st year of life. Even if they are chewy & chunky and weigh 20 lbs at 4 months (oh, Owen!).

Everybody has their favorite baby-carry-ing contraption. I've tried them all. My favorite? The Sakura Bloom ring sling.

My top 5 why Sakura Bloom Ring Slings are hot:
versatile - multiple holding positions, folds up small & is lightweight.
adjustable -  newborn to toddler, yo!
fashionable -  right? babies are.... fashionable! so is linen in grey.
comfortable - no matter which way you hold 'em, babies get heavy. don't blame this on the sling!
cozy - having baby snuggled in is gold. don't miss your opportunity. agreed = babies grow up FAST.

My favorite sling to carry my (almost 5 month old) baby Isac in?  Pure Linen in 'storm' - only $88!

Happy Monday!

To start the week off: new goodies from Amenity. I am crazed about their new kid's collection - vivid golds & oranges, fuchsias and ocean blues.

My favorite? The Alpaca Afghan in Ocean Blue.

Also: bath-time just got a bit more peaceful: organic hooded towels & washcloths.

Shop Amenity!

Which am I in love with more?

The Twice Twice Clock or or the Medium Torch (shown above, right), both by Jonas Damon? Hmm. My 5 year old son, however, would think the Black Numbers LED clock is the coolest, shown above, middle.

Instant cool.

Shop the entire Jonas Damon collection here.
