Adorable Chic

 This fashion-forward, adorable teddy is my new favorite gift for friends with recently born children. Designed and created by Ross Menuez (worth looking him up), he hand silk screens each on organic cotton and uses soy-based ink to create his wonderful graphic prints. His collection of bears are cute enough for display and soft enough to cuddle.

Looking For Wheels?

Not quite ready for a tricycle? Try this darling push cart. It's large enough to tire out a busy toddler who wants to shuttle her dolls around the house or driveway. And, it could be plenty purposeful after she has outgrown it - one of the cutest storage pieces I've seen.
