Organize with Petunia Pickle Bottom’s Designer Diaper Bags

This image below (which I created on Taxgedo) encompasses the many amazing qualities I find with the Petunia Pickle Bottom Diaper Bags and brand.  From durable, functional, designer, and more, their quality products really are top notch.
As women we pretty much spend our day running around, being everywhere at once, and trying to keep our heads on straight, staying organized sometimes gets way low on my priority list. Having a diaper bag, purse, and other items to help organize the things I need close by really makes a huge difference.

One thing I absolutely love about Petunia Pickle Bottom products is how they are made to be functional.  If you peak into the Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy Diaper Bags, you can see their many pockets to hold baby bottles, wipe containers, zippered pockets and amazing features including changing pads, stroller straps, phone holders and more! These bags are definitely going to be the best buy for you and your baby's needs.

This is a look inside the Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy Diaper Bag.  Look how much can fit in there!  Definitely helps you know where things are so you can get to it easily.


Here are some amazing styles of the Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy Bags along with tons of other styles.  I love the new patterns for the Fall 2012 collection.  There are so many to choose from, I go to my favorite boutique Oopsie Daisy who has all of the updated and PPB Boxy patterns!

This amazing bag can be used in your travels and is the perfect size for a weekend getaway.  The dimensions are 12 X 17 X 13 in. which is perfect for your travel needs.  I did a giveaway for this cute bag a few months ago and Jill loves it!

The Petunia Pickle Bottom Satchel is another beautifully designed and functional diaper bag from Petunia.  Same pockets and features as the Boxy Diaper Bag, but different dimensions if you want something less boxy.  You can see a view of the outside bottle pockets which are perfect to get to, I love how you are able to easily wipe this bag which makes it easy to clean.





Here is my Petunia Pickle Bottom Cake Diaper Bag.  Love this bag!
This Petunia Pickle Bottom Travel Train Case (in a Misted Marseille) can help you organize your make-up and other bathroom essentials whether you are using this in your bathroom or with you while travelling. 
Look how much can fit in here! I love having pockets inside cosmetic bags so you can easily get to things and know where they are. 

Another way you can organize with Petunia Pickle
Bottom is through their wallets.  This Wanderlust Wallet Travel Through Tivoli has 10 credit card slots, zippered coin purse, two photo windows for family pictures, interior pocket and bill pocket to store receipts, cash, and more.  What a great wallet and you can find them to match your Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bags. 
Love all of these cute items! I can't believe how amazing these products are to help women stay on top of it and organized. Love how they make them so beautiful and functional for all of us no matter if we are travelling or just going to the grocery store (which sometimes feels like travelling when you bring a bunch of kids :))

Perfect "Spoonful of Comfort" Gift Sets

Do you know anyone who just had a baby, on bed rest, not feeling well, or who just needs a hug?  My friend told me about this awesome company called Spoonful of Comfort which sends gourmet soups and special gift sets to your loved one to help lift up their day.




Their gift sets can come with their amazing chicken noodle soup, homemade rolls, sweet squeeze lemonade, cookies, and organic tea.  You get to choose what items you want to send and Spoonful of Comfort will wrap it up and send a beautiful handwritten card to whoever you have been thinking of. 





I love how it doesn't stop there.  The New Baby Gift Sets can come with cozy socks, a pocket token, and a plush cozy throw on top of the amazing food mentioned above (especially the chicken noodle soup).  What a perfect gift! I know so many people who are expecting and might need a comforting gift or who have just delivered and could use a welcome home gift. 




The chicken soup is made from natural ingredients with no additives and preservatives.  
The soup has chicken stock, natural chicken, noodles, carrots, celery, onions, sage, parsley, and sea salt.

Popular Chevron Crib Bedding

Chevron is such a popular pattern right now which you can find in clothes, accessories, room designs, artwork, and more. In baby nurseries this pattern is so darn cute! You can find so many cute colors and put as much, or as little of the pattern as you want. 
Here are tons of cute chevron sheets from http://www.babybedding.com for your baby nursery.  

I love this gray and yellow nursery.  The colors are so soft and you can see the gray and white chevron in the crib, rocking chair, and curtains. I love the pops of yellow in the little details. You can even see the yellow in the "B" on the pillow on the chair, the ties on the crib, shades on the lights, and hearts on the wall. 


Here is the price breakdown for this cute gray and yellow chevron sheets from http://www.babybedding.com  
Gray and Yellow Zig Zag Comforter: $119
Yellow sheets: $24














You can always use smaller amounts of chevron like this Owl Nursery.  I like how they put this cute owl bumper and found a matching gray chevron pattern for the crib skirt. 

More cute chevron sheets from this cute website.  I love the black and white chevron and polka dots. 

My favorite chevron pattern is this mist and gray chevron cribbing.  I love the lightness of the chevron patterns against the white crib and white wall.  The accent lights above are accents and draw your eye from its darker color.  Instead of those lights I would put a big chandelier in this room.
PS. That chevron lamp shade is to die for!

Here are the same mist and gray chevron sheets from this cute website. It is amazing how the same items in a room can look so different from their placement and how things are positioned. 

 My favorite thing about this pink chevron crib is how they also added a geometric pattern.  It breaks up the pattern nicely.  On the outside of this bumper (which costs $169) is a plain white, you could always put the patterns on the outside and choose a more basic crib skirt ($124).

Here is another pink chevron pattern with gray this time.  Again I love the different patterns they incorporated with the polka dots.  The cute ruffles on top are so darling and definitely the perfect girly touch for this girl nursery.  

I personally prefer lighter colors in a nursery but this combination of yellow and green in a nursery would look great.  

Beautiful Brown and White Nursery

Thanks Brooke for letting me share Hunter's Nursery. She did such a great job putting this cute brown and white nursery together. The art is amazing! She has beautiful wall art created by her brother and husband that looks amazing and I love seeing the cute animals around the room.  I am so in love with that houndstooth blanket.

When designing a nursery, you definitely want to have a comfortable chair for you and the baby.  There are so many gliders to choose from. 
Brooke found this glider for $20 and had covered the cushions with an outdoor fabric which would be awesome for quick cleaning.  I love the pattern she chose and the fabric is gender neutral so she can use it for other babies or she could always choose another fabric. 

Here is the cute changing table with wall art from her brother Josh.  You can see more of his artwork throughout the room as well.

The beautiful paintings on the wall were from her husband Dave.  I love this cute giraffe.  It makes this corner of the room so fun and you can see it well against the brown background.

Brooke purchased this from Etsy.  It has many family names on it which is cute. 

On the other side of the room you can see a beautiful tree wall art piece from Dave.  Wow this looks so great! I love how they hung the baby pictures on the branch.  It looks so sophisticated especially using the two colors (brown and white).  

Wow so cute! Love how the tree looks.  Brooke had two cute little ones in this room so you might see some girl things on this side of the room.  I love how this nursery turned out, feel free to see more pictures and her great ideas at Little Happies, she has so many cute parties for the kids you can see as well.

Vintage Bunting Baby Shower

I am toward the end of my trip and am sorry for not posting more! Before I get back I wanted to share another gorgeous vintage themed baby shower! This one is a Vintage Bunting Baby Shower at 
www.glorioustreats.com.  This is her little sister's shower and what a cute theme and a great idea!

I love the darling fabric pennant they use.  I love these kinds of pennants because when they are done you don't need to throw them away, you can use them for a birthday sign or put it in your baby's room after.  I think the wooden blocks are so darling  I've seen when people paint these blocks to match the shower. 
What delicious food as well! Perfect finger foods and they are are put together so well.


Oh my, these cookies are amazing! Love the initial cookies and the adorable cookies with the pennants.  Definitely some of the cutest baby shower cookies I have seen.
I love these cookie favors for this baby shower. Jeremiah is the baby's name and I love how these were put together.  They look so amazing.  What a great job. 
I also love these drink ideas and when mason jars are used.  Colorful straws are such a great way to bring in color.

Must-have Diaper Wipe Cases

There are so many diaper wipe cases that look dull and boring. I rather have something cute and fun that I can put in a diaper bag, in the car, or put in a baby nursery. Audge Podge creates gorgeous diaper wipe cases that have beautiful fabrics and designs so you can have a more personalized and fun case.
I also love how Audge Podge does custom orders so you can choose your fabric and lining, and can request matching changing mat, burp cloth, pacifier clips, and more.
Some of my favorite cases are from Audge Podge. I love their beautiful Toile Diaper Wipe Cases for a sophisticated style and it looks amazing in a baby nursery and to carry around in your diaper bag.  Audge Podge has so many cute toile colors to choose from and many are gender neutral colors for a baby gift if you don't know the gender.
Another great feature, which you can see on this Black Toile Baby Boutique Diaper Wipes Case, is that for a dollar more you can an elastic band on the back of the cases to hold diapers. What a perfect idea to hold everything together.










Here is their Embossed Black Travel Baby Wipes Case. How perfect is this to throw in your black purse or diaper bag.  I love how this looks like leather but it actually is a vinyl which would also be quick and easy to wipe clean.  
I also love and appreciate their collection of US Army Troops Diaper Wipe Cases in blue, gold, and red. Perfect for women supporting their troops and loved ones.  You can choose which fabric you like along with the trim.

If you want a diaper wipe case a little bigger, Audge Podge has Large Diaper Wipe Cases which are perfect for a baby nursery changing table. Look how adorable these are, I couldn't go back to normal white diaper wipe cases.

 It's definitely time to throw away your plain, boring diaper case and get something trendy and fresh.  There are many amazing diaper wipe cases to choose from at Audge Podge and remember you can request them to custom make your case to fit your purse, baby nursery, or style.  
What a perfect baby shower gift starting at $7.99!
