It seems like everyone I know is having babies this summer. Two friends have had beautiful little boys in the last two weeks. And a couple more new arrivals are expected this summer. One thing I’ve been hearing from the new mommies and daddies (besides how beautiful, brilliant and remarkable their baby is or will be) is that it’s really hard to find a diaper bag that doesn’t look like one. Or not. I found this adorable Posh By Tori Truffle Diaper & Travel Bag at Artistic Sensations.
POSH Handbags is all about life — a Fabulous life!!The woman behind POSH is Austin-based fashion designer Tori Alvarado. Tori’s keen eye for fashion allows her to expertly integrate the latest styles and colors into fun and functional accessories. Like a diaper bag that is totally functional and looks like a high end designer handbag.
Posh By Tori Truffle Diaper & Travel Bag – $129. Other patterns, colors, sizes and styles available. See more at Artistic Sensations.

Art glass lovers, take note. There is a HUGE selection of beautiful Murano glass and art glass at Novica.com 
. Explore the work of dozens of artisans and craftspeople from all over the world. You’ll find wonderful glass for gifting. And for keeping, too. At prices starting well below $50 up to several hundred dollars for all but the most expensive pieces.
I love the look of this small Murano vase and at $47.95, it’s quite a good buy.
Murano handblown vase, ‘Ember’ 
The fiery red glow of this vase is fascinating. It is intense and passionate, and contrasts elegantly with its crystalline finish. The Seguso Family mastermind the illusion as they craft the vase by hand with traditional blown glass techniques inherited from Murano, Italy. The presence of air bubbles accentuates the nature of the traditional hand blown crafting process, making each piece unique. Other designs, sizes and colors are available from the same artists.
I also like the glass star mobile – what a wonderful gift for a baby shower! Also under $50.
Glass mobile, ‘Dancing Stars’

If you’re looking for a fun and memorable baby gift, I love the idea of teeny-tiny team jerseys and gear. A gift like this is especially perfect for a new addition a family of die hard fans, but it’s also a fun way to pay tribute to the new parents’ college days or home towns.
And for all those new grandparents, aunts and uncles – this is a great way to start the indoctrination early, especially if there’s a little intra-family fan rivalry to be nurtured!

Now, this is one of the most ingeniously clever things that I’ve seen in a while. And such a simple idea. Yet positively brilliant. The Bahama Baby Blanket (from the oh so innovative Bahama Towel Company 
) has patented sewn-in feet so you can place baby in a car seat or stroller without having to unwrap the blanket. Like I said, brilliant!
They also offer adorable Bahama Kids Hooded Towels and Bahama Kids Hooded Robes, so kids can get warm and toasty when they come out of the pool or bath. And their original designs for beach towels are equally ingenious. They include a sewn in pocket that prevents the towel from slipping off your lounge chair. Love that!

How scary is this massive toy recall that’s underway? In case you’ve been sleeping under a rock and don’t know, allow me to summarize. Millions of toys manufactured in China, including many very popular and common toys manufactured by Mattel, Fisher Price and other major brands, have been recalled because they’ve been painted with lead based paints. OY! And we’re talking about some of the most popular and common toys for little kids. The kind of toys that wind up in little mouths. DOUBLE OY! At this point, we’re all thinking about two things when it comes to safe toys. First and foremost – what to do about the toys that are already in the house. The answer is to check all your toys thoroughly and return EVERYTHING that is on ANY of the recall lists. Many experts also suggest testing remaining toys with a home test kit. Some people are even going as far as to get rid of any metal or painted toys that were made in China, regardless of their inclusion on a recall list. How far to take the toy purge is a personal choice and I am far from an expert on the subject and would never tell anyone how to make the best choice to protect their children, grandchildren, neices and nephews. I urge anyone reading this to educate yourself thoroughly about the facts and to check your home for recalled or suspicious products. In other words, get the lead out!
Once that’s over, you’ve got to be thinking what I am at this point. This is awful. This is a pain. This is annoying. And most of all – I do not want to do this again. Ever. I want to buy toys that I know are safe so I don’t need to worry. Wondering how to do that? Check this out. I’ve always been a fan of eBeanStalk.com. Each one of their developmental toys is hand selected by experts to nurture intellectual growth and inspire creativity in newborns, toddlers and children up to about 5 or 6. And here’s one more reason to be a fan. NOT ONE TOY ON THEIR SITE WAS INCLUDED IN ANY RECALL! And even better: THEY’VE LEAD TESTED EVERY SINGLE TOY THEY SELL JUST TO BE SURE. Now if that’s not enough to inspire confidence, I don’t know what is. I’m completely impressed with eBeanStalk.com and I know you will be too.
Thought you’d want to know.

Posted in Baby Gifts, Gift Cards, New Baby Gifts, Shopping Tips at 12:36 am by Deb Savvy
When in doubt, you can’t go wrong with a gift card from babyGap.com 
- Normally I am not a fan of giving and receiving gift cards, but this is one exception. Why? First of all it’s virtually IMPOSSIBLE to have children and not regularly shop there, but that’s not the only reason why I think these cards make the perfect baby gift. If you shop there regularly then you know how frequently the inventory turns over. Sometimes things are only in the store a couple of weeks before whatever is left is marked down to make room for new arrivals. It seems like such a waste to buy something knowing that it could cost half as much in a matter of days. I’ve given gifts that the parents later noticed on the sale rack and subsequently returned them in exchange for sale merchandise. Why not just save them the trouble?
If you can’t bring yourself to send a gift card or you really want a gift that can be openend are remembered as coming from you, I suggest you go for the classic denim pieces. The simple signature jean jacket does not go on sale quite as frequently and every cool baby needs one!

OK, I’m the first to admit that this idea is not appropriate for everyone. But for the right people – or the right child - baby biker gear is PERFECT. I love the idea of the Harley Davidson rocking hog.

And the toy box is totally cute too.

I found both of these at HomeVisions
