My Modern Nursery #72: Wired for Girls Sponsored by NUMI NUMI Design
I know that NUMI NUMI‘s new Wired collection is inspired by modern technology and a busy urban skyline, but what was really speaking to me this week was the beautiful natural bamboo materials and the Amber finish of the Wired Crib and Wired Changing Table. I really did start with a more urban inspiration but scrapped it all in an effort to not distract from the design of the crib. Instead, the coral and blue color scheme worked with the Amber color and became this fun, warm and feminine design board.

2- Astron Mid-Century Modern Pendant– $155
3- Wired Crib from NUMI NUMI Design- $1790

Cloth Dolls from blabla kids
If you’re at all familiar with the modern baby product world, you are familiar with or even own at least one blabla knit doll. Pierre the Bunny hangs around in my little one’s room and he’s as soft and deliciously cuddly as you could hope a plush toy to be.
Now blabla has introduced a collection of cloth dolls representing many of the same characters.
They have Beauregard the Wolf, Wooly the Sheep, Fleur the Bunny, Pierre the Bunny, Socks the Fox and Suzette the Fox, all done in a printed cloth.
They retail for $34 each (vs. $44-$56 for the mini and regular knit dolls).
