LILYPAD BABY RINGS IN 2006 WITH SIX NEW STYLES AND THE INTRODUCTION OF STERLING SILVER KEEPSAKES
Lilypadbaby.com also now features the stories of the babies behind the styles
Manhattan Beach, CA, January 9, 2006 – Lilypad Baby (http://www.lilypadbaby.com/), makers of high-quality baby accessories and apparel, have launched six new styles of the smart and stylish bibs, burp cloths and blankets the company has become known for. As Lilypad Baby fans have come to learn, each style has been named for an inspirational baby in the life of company President and co-founder, Kathie Papera, and visitors to the Lilypadbaby.com website can now also meet the styles’ namesakes through their bios and photos.
The company has also added heirloom-quality sterling silver baby gifts to its offerings, including cups, rattles, and spoons – most with engraving options and all with a flannel bag for storage, artfully packaged in a slate blue box.
New styles include:
Lucy - This crisp style is reminiscent of a vintage kitchen dishtowel. The vibrant blue, cherry red and canary yellow floral pattern has a classic yellow and white diamond-check reverse. As with all of our baby bibs - the Lucy bib is reversible for added fashion coordination.
Cannon - Go Team! This vintage football style is full of tradition and spirit. On a gorgeous blue, players are in action on one side, with realistic footballs covering the reverse of the bibs. The winner of a Fall Football Style Contest, the baby behind this style is full of spirit and personality, his parents little cannonball!
Dahlia – A vibrant and warm floral paisley print embellishes cool mint green, while half-moon swirls float on a raspberry reverse.
Joe - America's favorite pastime lives on in this brilliant red style with a beautiful tan and cream check reverse.
Finn - Our fanciful fire truck style makes a wonderful gift for a little hero-to-be. All of the fireman favorites adorn this in sky blue with a red gingham reverse.
Gavin - Its time to shake things up! Our rock & roll guitar style features realistic guitars and flames on the reverse. As with all of our baby bibs - the Gavin is reversible for added fashion coordination and can also be personalized with a baby's name. With our unique embroidery and construction process, the reverse stitching does not show through the other side!
“As any parent knows, every baby’s personality is unique, which gives us endless inspiration and opportunity for new products and styles,” said Kathie Papera, President of Lilypad Baby. “We hope that customers can get a sense of some of the babies we are honored to know and love through their bios and photos, and also through the fabrics we have chosen to embody their spirits.”
Started on a kitchen table, Lilypad Baby began as a hobby, with founder Kathie Papera picking unique fabrics and spending countless hours making stylish baby bibs for her friends. Through trial and error, a design was created that merged form and function, and an alternative to impersonal gift giving was born. Most recently, the company launched a line of diaper covers that add a bit of style and flair to a boring diaper. The bloomers are a modern, mini take on the traditional undergarment and the boxers come complete with faux fly.

All Lilypad Baby products are available at www.lilypadbaby.com or at stores across throughout the U.S. and Canada, including Giggle in San Francisco and New York, Pretty Please, and Lesters in New York, Uber Baby in Minneapolis, Bearly Kidding in Scottsdale, Haute Baby in Dallas, and Sprout and The Pump Station in Los Angeles.
