Food Smocks from Petite Violette

2008-05-01-food smocks.jpg
Bibs just can't cover it all, and we all know how messy things can get. That's why these smocks make great gifts for new babies or artistic toddlers. Plus, we love the look on this little girl's face!

 
 

The smocks are designed by Brooklyn mom Corey Robbins and they come in eight fun prints. They're $35, but think of all the cute outfits they'll save from ruin! They're available right here.

Not that I want to take buisness away from a BK mom, but you can get the same thing for super-cheap at IKEA: $3.99 for 2. They are great! (BARNSLIG RAND bib). http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10121520

And who makes the table and chairs? Very nice for a small space.

I've made some bibs similar to this before and I have one little suggestion. Elastic wrists. They help keep stuff from dripping down little baby and toddler arms.

I'd also like to know where those chairs come from. I already have that Ikea stool and it makes a great kid table!

Priceless picture. Someone should caption it.

Not to rain on the cute design parade (because these are very cite), but are they safe? The site says they're coated cotton, but most coatings are PVC or vinyl which is something most parents are trying to avoid now. With all the news on watching content in bibs & food-related stuff, it would help if parents knew what these were coated with.

Hi all- these smocks are coated with a very small amount of polyurethane - the same waterproofing that goes on cloth diaper covers. There is no PVC and no vinyl.
