As Seen in DailyCandy Kids LA: Nurseryworks’ Uptown Collection at Petit Trésor

As Seen in DailyCandy Kids Los Angeles: The January 16, 2012 post, A Hometown Honey: Tamara Kaye-Honey for Nurseryworks Collection, features one of our favorite nursery furniture collections.

The Nurseryworks Uptown Collection is exclusively available at Petit Trésor to L.A. moms shopping for glamorous nursery furniture. The collection includes only two furniture pieces – a crib and changer – but is incredibly versatile. Available in white lacquer with black trim, or the reverse of black lacquer with white trim, these pieces can be the starting point for a statement-making, graphic nursery or the perfect counterpoint to your child’s fairytale room. Beyond style, each piece also easily transitions through the years. The crib converts into a stunning twin bed and the changer is a fabulous Hollywood Regency piece that would be perfect anywhere in the home.

Nurseryworks Uptown Changer, $1200

Nurseryworks Uptown Crib, $1500

Petit Trésor Featured on Beyonce and Jay-Z Baby Gift Guide

What do you get for the baby who has everything? And by baby, we mean Beyonce and Jay-Z‘s newborn, Blue Ivy Carter. On The Insider airing last night (January 10, 2012), the segment entitled Bling for Baby Blue asked life & style expert (and mom!) Jayneoni Moore to provide an awe-inducing gift guide to the superstar couple’s celebrity friends. On the list? The Petit Ange handcrafted European cradle, exclusively available at Petit Trésor.

Moore, known for her baby & toddler Boom Boom Room gifting suites at Hollywood mega-events like the Golden Globes and the Oscars, declared: “This is the type of gift that you give to someone who tops Forbe‘s richest list.”

Hand made by artisans, this heirloom quality cradle is fit for any princess, whether she comes from music royalty, or not. Only the finest woods and materials are used in each hand-finished and hand-sanded piece in our Petit Ange furniture collection. The extraordinary quality and detail have made it popular with Hollywood’s elite, including Tia Mowry & Cory Hardrict, Dr. Phil McGraw and wife Robin, and many others. Available in many finishes, the “Chateau Blue” option, however, uniquely has the newest Carter’s name all over it.

Beyonce gave a big hint to her friends and family over Christmas when she gifted all in blue. Want to send your own “blue” baby gifts? Also on Jayneoni Moore’s gift guide are:

Lulla Smith Silk Bear (Dad, a Yankee-fan, will approve of the pinstripes!)
Little Giraffe Luxe New Dot Pillow
Little Giraffe Luxe Blanket

Modern Dollhouses, A Luxe Holiday Gift for 2011

There are few holiday gifts that bring more wonder and excitement to the recipient than a dollhouse. This year, gift the special little girl or collector in your life with one of these modern dollhouses and it is sure to become a treasured keepsake.

Dylan House
Inspired by minimalist architectural masterpieces, the Dylan House is designed to evoke similar concrete and glass structures, but with the breeziness of a beachfront home. The floor-to-ceiling windows open to allow for play in any of the five living spaces on three levels: living room/dining room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and roof patio. Dylan House is constructed from eco-friendly MDF and non-toxic and lead-free paints.

Dylan House Furniture
Furniture is sold separately in a set of 23 pieces designed to fill the five Dylan House living spaces. Each piece is made of durable foamboard and is created in 3/4″ scale.

Modern Living Room Furniture for Dollhouse

Bennett House
Influenced by the De Stijl movement of the early 20th century, Bennett House breaks out of the townhouse genre with architecture that reveals structure and engineering while emphasizing lines, squares and rectangles in asymmetrical patterns. Whether open or closed, the two-story living room, elevator, roof top pool, balconies, master bedroom, and children’s bedroom are accessible for play. Bennett House is made of CARB-certified woods, such as bamboo, and non-toxic, lead-free paints and stains.

Maison Collection Furniture
The Maison Furniture Collection is the perfect complement to the Bennett House, or any modern dollhouse, with its clean and sophisticated aesthetic that mixes classic modern design with contemporary highlights. Each of the 40 individual pieces has been detailed to add extra dimension and authenticity. Designed to furnish seven rooms, plus two sets of accessories, American black walnut is used as a common thread.

A modern dollhouse is the perfect holiday gift. Now the only question is, how will you wrap it?

Petit Trésor, As Seen on The Rachel Zoe Project

Congratulations to Rachel Zoe on wrapping another fashionable season of The Rachel Zoe Project! If you tuned into the final two episodes of Season Four, customers of our baby boutique may have recognized both our store on Robertson and products from Petit Trésor in several scenes.

New at Petit Trésor: Baby Briefcase

BabyBriefcase – a unique baby shower gift for new moms or growing families – now available at Petit Trésor.

Bringing home baby… in a briefcase? There are many surprises that come along with the birth of your baby – don’t let the piles of paperwork that come along with a newborn be one of them. It might feel like the weight of all your hospital documents equals that of your baby; that’s why mom inventor Tamar Shay created the BabyBriefcase organizer to keep everything orderly, accessible, and in one place.

The frosted plastic briefcase contains nine plastic folders in frosty periwinkle, mint green, and peach to file such important documents as the birth certificate, insurance paperwork, social security forms, baby equipment warranties, and much more. Filing labels come pre-printed with useful categories and additional blank labels can be customized.

When sleep deprivation hits, the included Thank You Note Tracker helps moms keep up with the dizzying amount of arriving gifts and well-wishes with a composed graciousness that will have everyone wondering, “I don’t know how she does it.” Moms will also love the reassurance of the six Baby’s Info Wallet Cards, an easy way for any caregiver – mom, dad, grandparents – to always have baby’s vitals on hand.

BabyBriefcase has a click-and-snap closure and carrying handle, plus a handy pen slot, to make all of your baby’s information portable to doctor’s appointments, on family trips, etc. At home it’s easy to keep BabyBriefcase with your other files, as it fits into standard file cabinets. Moms will want one for each child, and the photo holder on front even makes immediately finding the right briefcase easy!

Get the Look: Tiffani Thiessen’s Nursery

When Tiffani Thiessen and husband Brady Smith began the weeks-long task of planning their nursery, little did the then expecting mom know that she would deliver another labor of love – her own nursery décor collection! The whimsically stylish room reflects the actress’ own eye for mid-century design and Smith’s artistic talents that combined to inspire their new business venture. Her husband even hand-painted the collage of birds on the wall. Beyond aesthetics, Thiessen and Smith wanted to make the nursery eco-friendly as possible, installing grey recycled floors that complement the striking lavender VOC-free paint. You can achieve the same look with wonderfully designed environmentally-friendly furniture like Thiessen’s Oeuf Classic Crib. Style and comfort come together in the Oilo Penelope Glider that’s upholstered in a buttery water repellent and stain resistant faux leather that easily wipes clean. The Serena & Lily Curvee Table and DwellStudio Sparrow Lilac Crib Set are fun accents that tie together the enchanting theme.

Product Trends for Nursery and Baby from ABC Kids Expo

We had a great time scoping out all the best new baby products and nursery design trends at the 2011 ABC Kids Expo!

Petit Trésor was attending as not only a buyer, but exhibiting our new bedding collections. The response to our five new crib bedding set designs was overwhelming! We hope you love them just as much. Coming soon to a specialty baby retailer near you are:

Gabrielle, inspired by Coco Chanel

Fairytale Princess

Bon Voyage

Happy Animals

Cherry Blossoms

What’s your favorite? Please share what you think!

We can’t wait to stock our personal favorites – the best new baby products, all coming to Petit Trésor soon.

The most exciting announcement is Jonathan Adler‘s collaboration with Skip Hop. We’re big fans of Jonathan Adler – love the fun and colorful prints – and have been anxious for him to create something for the juvenile industry. His designs are a perfect match for this brand.

Skip Hop also impressed with their new Complete Sheet, a crib sheet with the look of a sheet and a bumper, but none of the safety concerns of an actual bumper pad. Available in eight styles, the Complete Sheet has a bold theme surrounding the mattress sides and a contrasting pattern on top. Genius!

More innovative products: One of our favorite baby baths, the Puj tub that conforms and folds to fit any sink is now available in a variety of colors. And, moms-on-the-go will love the Yoomi self-warming baby bottle. A bottle and warmer in one, at the touch of a button Yoomi warms to the natural temperature of breast milk in just 60 seconds.

We’ll also be carrying the new DwellStudio toys. We especially like the plush toys and knit blocks.

If you are planning or designing a nursery, trends in color are soft tones of blush and grey. Our own Fairy Princess bedding set features this delicate color combination. Oilo has a beautiful new blush bedding set, Freesia. Also available in this gorgeous print are changing pad covers with removable toppers for easier cleaning. Not just limited to textiles, Argington showed their Sahara crib in grey.

DwellStudio’s new designs also included a beautiful blush, the new Vintage Blossom Set.

Muslin fabric is gaining popularity, especially in swaddling blankets, as we previously wrote in Swaddling with Aden +Anais that it has natural stretch and allows for superior air circulation. DwellStudio and JJ Cole both have new muslin swaddle sets in popular grey & blush color options.

It was another great year! What new products are you most excited to see on the market?
