Elephants and piggies and lions, oh my! With the intense marketing and popularity of animal-shaped pillows, smaller companies selling plush critters might not get the attention they deserve. What if you could offer your customers an affordable and unique alternative to over-commercialized toys? And what if that offering also happened to help animals everywhere, lining cages instead of just pockets? Tell your customers it is, in fact, hip to be square by offering them Zooklz, the square animals with attitude.

Furnishings and decorative accessories for kids were dominated by boring wood stains and shades of dull. That was then. Now there are several manufacturers that offer good looking, quality crafted products that fit into a variety of trend-driven lifestyle decors. Whether a customer lives in a contemporary home, a traditional house or a French Provincial setting, there are designs that blend in harmoniously. Here are some examples of new designs from Bratt Décor, Muralistick, indoTreasures, and SweetSeat.

Baby Bella Maya introduces a line of stroller blankets intended to compliment their portfolio of car seat covers, infant carrier slip covers and accessories. This new introduction takes their popular plush blankets and makes them even more desirable by cleverly adding ties to the corners. Now the blanket can be attached to strollers, car seats, infant carrier covers, etcetera, the possibilities are endless. Pair this convenience with an ultra soft plush blanket that is extremely comfortable to cuddle up in and you have a winning design.
