Description
Toys everywhere. A wooden duck, a stuffed rabbit missing one ear, a set of stacking cups and a rattle that has been thrown over the side of the playpen at least fourteen times this morning. In the middle of it all sits Jules, eight months old, delighted with himself, and absolutely certain that his grandmother will pick the rattle up again. She does, every single time.
This box captures those happy, busy days of babyhood. A baby sits in a colorful playpen, hand-painted by skilled artisans with all the bright charm of a nursery. Lift the top and there is space for a snipped lock or a tooth, the kind of tiny treasure parents and grandparents never want to lose. It is a lovely gift for a baby shower, a maternity present for an expectant mother, or a first-birthday keepsake. Display it next to the baby book in the nursery, on a grandmother’s dresser, or in a display cabinet of family heirlooms that will one day be passed to the next generation.
