PBK Has a Little Competition


Serena & Lily just might give Pottery Barn Kids a run for their money. This company has unique nursery and child bedding by mixing stripes, stars, dots, flowers, and plaids. They also carry gliders for the nursery, headboards, rugs, lamps, paint, and bedding basics to equal one coordinated room. You can order fabric samples to make sure the colors are a match for your taste.

One of the best aspects of the company is the donation program called Gently Loved. I call it the Gently Loved and Incredibly Generous To Those Who Give program! Read this:
"We invite you to partner with Serena & Lily to ensure that every child has a safe place to sleep. Through our Gently Loved™ program, you can donate your gently-used crib bumper (from Serena & Lily) to an infant in need, and receive a “thank you” gift certificate of $100, good toward any purchase on our website.
Serena & Lily has partnered with Baby Buggy, a New York City non-profit founded by Jessica Seinfeld, to outfit the thousands of cribs they donate every year through Project Safe Sleep. In partnership with Mayor Bloomberg and NYC Hospitals, Baby Buggy has donated over 3,000 cribs to families in poverty so that they may create safe sleeping places for their infants. With your help, Serena & Lily has pledged to make these cribs warm and safe and beautiful, by collecting your gently-used bumpers and by manufacturing new crib sheets using our fabric overruns and extras. By the end of 2007, Serena & Lily will have donated over 3,000 new crib sheets to Project Safe Sleep."
