I introduced you to this company last week but focused on their precious Christmas Keepsake outfits.  Today I’d like to share all the other fabulous products they have for you!  B amici is a new company founded during our recession.  They can be found in over 300 specialty boutiques nationwide.  They use 100% combed cotton fabric.   B amici has a unique niche, they use art from the famous Stacy Claire Boyd who designs custom birth announcements!   You will see a collection of Stacy Claire Boyd’s art in b amici’s prints and keepsakes.   It’s the perfect combination of blending screen prints with embroideries.  Innovative packaging that you won’t want to open,  you’ll just want to set the package aside and take in its delicate details.   You can’t have a new baby in your life and not have them dressed in b amici!

Noah is teething so he’s been drooling constantly, yesterday I discovered a bump on his bottom center gum!  Yeah :-) We were lucky enough to receive two bibs from b amici.  They are super cute, a little trendy with guitar designs and a bit vintage with classic car designs.   These are the perfect bib for handling drool!  They aren’t huge or bulky. Noah wears his as an accessory that happens to keep his shirt dry :-) The front is a cotton jersey with Michael Miller Fabric on the bottom and back of the bib. The bib has a velcro back closure.  Isn’t it cute!

What I enjoy the most about b amici’s products are their beautiful keepsake boxes!  The boxes themselves are a delight and inside they are packed full of treats!  Every new mother would cherish a Keepsake Box for their precious baby!  This is mine, and I treasure it!  I’ll keep it for Noah when he’s grown.

What you can’t see in the pictures are the details of the bib and the little Car Collection tee.  The back closes with three little buttons, very stylish touch.    I like how the garments fit Noah.  The tee’s are made longer not square so your babies belly isn’t popping out all the time :-)

Noah lives in the outfit below.  It is super soft, long sleeves and just so comfy for him to wiggle around and play in all day. Welcome the baby with a wonderful keepsake gift box that holds a 2 pc set inside. The shirt is a lap shoulder with contrast stitching at neck, sleeves and bottom hem. The pant is a blue and brown yarn dyed stripe and has an elastic waist. The keepsake box tells a story about Hootsner the owl.  Hootsner will protect all of baby’s hidden treasures stored inside the box!  :-)

Delightfully preppy photo & non-photo cards!

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Some of you may already know this about me, but if not, I am obsessed with the latest craze: giraffes… Call me crazy, but I designed my younger son’s nursery around them as well as his 1st birthday party. I am currently on the hunt for the perfect giraffe print handbag & anything with those unique, wild-kingdom-like spots catches my eye! So of course, when I found out about this new stationery company & when I saw her giraffe-print party invitations, I was hooked!
This brand new company, known as littleday press, was started by Carrie Eckert, owner of Pen & Parchment, an online stationery boutique. The littleday press collection includes birth announcements & party invitations in a delightful assortment of preppy photo & non-photo designs {including the famous giraffe-print pictured above}. All cards are professionally printed on premium quality felt card stock, that looks and feels like watercolor.The most recent addition to the collection, that hasn’t even been added to the site, but can be seen on the Stationery Scoop Blog {also by Carrie Eckert}, is the custom framed prints collection. These can be special ordered through the contact form on the littleday press site, at $22 unframed and $56 framed, plus shipping.Currently, all orders are taken directly through the Pen & Parchment web site, but custom orders are gladly accepted through the littleday press contact page.

BabyLuxe readers take 15% off your order with coupon code “babyluxe15″ {not available on the custom framed prints}.
