New Tea Party Bedding has arrived...



...and it is sooo very cute! We took a little different path when designing this collection! Our 100% cotton comforter is a soft pink with pink and white printed polka dots and for some extra fun (the Olive Kids way) we added appliqued plush pink circles which are outline stitched and cute pink ribbons.



Our ultra soft 100% cotton sheet are a pastel pink with everything little girls need to have a tea party! Tea Pots with hearts, Yummy Cupcakes, Tea Cups and lots of beautiful flowers! They are a 200 thread count and the flat sheet and pillowcase have a folded and sewn on hem with a beautiful decorative pink ribbon.



Olive Kids Shams are the best in the business and you see why when you look at our tea party sham! It is made from the softest plush in pinks and purple with embroider details, elegant lace and ribbon trim. Little Girls will love it on their bed!



Plush Pillow made for a princess at a tea party! This yummy cupcake plush pillow will bring a smile to your little girls face!

Celebrity Baby Blog - Review

You may have seen the celebrities that we gave Olive Kids Personalized gift to at the boom boom room on their site and if you missed it you can see them all on our blog.

We sent the CBB reviewers some personalized placemats for their kids and this is what they had to say about them!

Olive Kids Personalized Placemats: Food for thought

When your kid has an unusual or unique spelled name, finding products with their name on it is pretty much impossible. That's why I'm always on the lookout for quality personalized kids' products. Olive Kids sent us their personalized placemats and they are Anya's current favorites (apologies to Emily Green). We have the Happily Ever After/Princess and Country Farm themes and Anya always tells us that the princess on the mat is "Princess Anya."

CBB Reviewer Reva seconds Anya's approval and told me, The Olive Kids placemats are a generous size (12"x18") and very nicely made. They are evenly and smoothly laminated, so very easy to wipe clean. The designs were very charming and my 2-year old loved them.

And CBB Fashion/Gear/Reviews Editor, Bronwyn, loved them, too.

I have a hard time with personalized products -- Try finding things with the name Antonia on them! And these mats are VERY well made. They wipe clean easily and can be immersed in water for thorough cleaning.

They have holiday themed mats such as four designs for Easter, one for St. Patrick's Day, plus fall and winter holidays. At $9.99 each (or $6.99 for non-personalized ones), they make an inexpensive and adorable gift. A set of five is $45 so you can rotate them every day.

The Opinion Parent


Has a great Opinion of Olive Kids products! I read their blog and found it very interesting and thought that their reader base would be interested in hearing about Olive Kids. What I didn't realized until I spoke to them was all of the products they review are donated to a local charity to help needy families. What a great idea! It turns out that they were in the process of helping a local shelter.

This is what she told me "I talked to the shelter director this morning when I took in a bunch of samples to donate and she was excited to hear that there would be bedding coming in the future because it's something they are short of. Most of their kids beds are double size so if you're able to send that size it would be great. They use playpens for the little folks apparently. They're looking to do a themed kids room or two for those kids who really need something special when they arrive so I think we'll go with the 'wild animals' theme since it's kind of gender neutral. We'll give everything you send to the shelter at the end of January and my husband and I will offer to buy the paint for the room and paint & set it up if they haven't already got people to do that."

Her and her husband are making a difference in their community and we helped! We sent her the Wild Animal bedding colletion and you can see her review of our products by clicking on the link theOpinionatedparent under websites and blogs that feature Olive Kids.

Kim,

As promised, here are some pictures of our son's room. I wasn't sure if you wanted pictures of him in his room. If you do, please just let me know. While Connor & his sisters were at my parents' house, I put up the wallies in his room. When they came home, they were so excited to see the walls. Connor even said his walls were beautiful! I think his room looks great & I can't wait to pick our a new room decor for our twin girls. Thank you again for such wonderful products!

Another Happy Customer!


Hi Kim,

I was the vendor next to you at the Boom Boom Room (Adiri) and I just received the personalized placemats for Lila and Ronan. They are lovely! I was so happy to get them! I put them out for the kids this morning as a surprise with their valentine's treats, and they were so excited. It is funny how much kids love personalized things (including the name tags, which
they're totally into).

Anyway, I was really impressed that you followed up, and with the quality of the gifts. Hope you had a very happy Valentine's Day! I'm attaching a V-Day picture of Lila.

Thanks again,

Jennifer
CEO
