Jax Toy Cube, the Organic Organizer

Aaron Burgess — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 15:00:00 GMT

Okay, so it's only half-organic, but you can still feel good about the rest of the materials in this Jax Toy Cube from Nest. Fourteen inches in all directions, the cube (which doubles as child seating) features a durable organic-cotton cover stretched over its recycled-wood frame. We're showing the purple version here, but it's also available in a more gender-neutral orange or green.

$69.99 from Oompa Toys.

A Diaper Bag to Drool Over

SunnyChanel — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 18:00:00 GMT

For those of us who may have a bag fetish, this one is for you. I should start off by saying that this diaper bag costs $415. But it is a style that doesn’t scream “I’ve got diapers, wipes and spit up covered clothes in me,” and better yet it can transition easily from ‘Diaper Bag’ to a everyday "what kids?" bag’.

The Mercer Diaper bag is by Nest and is made of a ‘sleek’ patent leather with suede details. It also comes with long removable stroller straps. If you’d like to check it out or at least ogle it a little longer, you can check it out from Lifesize Kids here.

7 Days of Diaper Bags: The North South Bag by Nest

SunnyChanel — Wed, 21 May 2008 15:22:00 GMT

As soon as I had my darling daughter I had to pack away my skinny jeans, midriff hugging bodices and worst of all, my collection of beloved purses and handbags had to find a new home in the back of the closet, only finding freedom on the rare date night. One of my favorite bags was a black leather multi pocketed number that was a wee bit too small for motherhood. But lucky I have found its’ diaper friendly doppleganger! The North South Diaper Bag by Nest looks like a “normal” purse than a kiddieland carryall. It’s made of faux leather, making it easy to clean and care for and it boasts an astonishing number of pockets, twenty-six to be exact. I have not idea what I’d do with twenty six storage compartments but I’d bet I’d find uses for them in no time at all. The washable changing pad is hidden in the bottom zippered compartment and it comes with a longer clip on strap so you can connect it to your stroller handles. A lot of pluses for sure, the one minus? I found this dream diaper bag right as we’re entering potty training time when I’ll be saying farewell to the diaper bags for good. But this one is so practical and stylish, I could keep on using it regardless. ($150)

Droolworthy: Ooba Nest Bassinet

Meredith Broussard — Fri, 12 Oct 2007 14:15:00 GMT

This elegant Eames-influenced bassinet is an inspired addition to any ultra-modern bedroom. Keep baby cozy and within arm's reach while avoiding aesthetic insults (like that mesh co-sleeper that initially seemed like a good idea but ended up functioning as an unnecessarily expensive nightstand).

The Ooba Nest bassinet has a plywood shell that's available in either birch or walnut wood veneer; legs are chrome and the slipcover is 100% cotton. Set includes slip cover, mattress pad, cover, and two fitted sheets. A conversion kit is also available ($250) to turn the bassinet into a play table or a toy bin when baby is bigger.

Bassinet available for $600 at 2modern.com.
