Today I checked the mail and the new Pottery Barn Kids catalogue was waiting for me. I love Pottery Barn and use it as inspiration for a lot of my decorating. The items sold by this vendor are often very expensive but you can find similar items in other stores for less. Hence, the Pottery Barn catalogue is my shopping/decorating Bible.
Anyways, as I was looking through the catalogue I came across this:
A whale shaped wicker basket. I had tried to order this basket last year for our living room to keep magazines and Hunter's toys in but PBK had sold out and it was not avaliable second hand (and I did a LOT of searching). So, when I saw it today I had to snatch it up.
I purchased it in white and it will either be kept in your room and stuffed with toys or we will use it in the livingroom to keep diapering supplies and/or toys as you grow. If you are a girl I will likely add a bow to it. When I mentioned this your Dad laughed and called me the "ribbon queen". It's true - I have a lot of ribbon and I like to add it to many things to give them that "extra touch".
This was a very expensive purchase but we will be able to use this basket for many many years to come and its uses are not limited to baby/kid items.
So little avacado - when you ask me many years from now what was the first baby thing we bought I will be able to tell you it was this adorable white wicker whale basket.
