I'm Getting Coordinated!


I have added pillows to my product line which coordinate with my modern baby blankets. I've had a few requests for these and so here it is! I am excited to also offer sets/combo deals. Now on my Etsy site (www.jgdesigns.etsy.com) you can buy a baby blanket and pillow for $60.00. It's a good deal because my blanket alone costs $50 and the pillow alone costs $16.00. The pillows are available in Elephant (blue, pink, green) and Baby Sea Turtles.

Also, I am looking to add brand new designs / items to my product line very soon!

Mod Square Montage

My newest creation... something a bit different than my animal designs. I've gone geometric and designed a modern squares baby blanket with brown and greens. I find this blanket quite stunning if I don't say so myself. Of all my blankets I have made I am having a hard time parting with this one.

New Design, New Diaper Bag - Japanese Sakura (Cherry Blossoms)


This is my BRAND NEW DESIGN of modern sakura "cherry blossoms" as you would see them falling from the cherry blossom trees in Japan. March is the time when these unique delicate flowers are celebrated in what is known as The Cherry Blossom festival.

Click Here to View More Images

This diaper bag tote is made of 100% dark chocolate linen, lined with pink cotton, has two interior sippy cup and one zipper pocket, and three pink satin cherry blossom appliqués on one side of the exterior. The bag is sturdy and durable for any travel or everyday use.

Size: Approx. 16 x 20 with 28" strap.

Symbolism of the Sakura:
"In China, the cherry blossom is a symbol of feminine beauty. It also represents the feminine principle and love in the language of herbs. In Japan, cherry blossoms symbolize the transience of life because of their short blooming times. They have also come to represent clouds of their nature of blooming en masse. Falling blossoms are metaphors for fallen warriors who died bravely in battle. This connotation links them with the samurai."
~Wikipedia

This bag is made to order. Please allow 3-4 days for production plus 3-4 days shipping time. I also welcome CUSTOM REQUESTS. Please EMAIL ME with any questions.
