Baby Shower Themes by Silly Phillie

As a baby gift designer I am well aware of the various Baby Shower Themes used by expectant parents. Some themes are classic, while others trendy. But a unified theme definitely adds to the appearance and festiveness of a baby shower.

Baby Shower Themes-Unicorns

I had the pleasure this past weekend of attending a fantastic baby shower. The shower was given for my dear friend Corrie’s daughter-in-law, Ashley. It was a tastefully done affair in every way. Ashley is expecting her first so everything had to be perfect. She and her husband Michael choose to name their new daughter Oliva, and picked Unicorns as the the theme for the shower.

There were Unicorns everywhere you looked. From table decorations, to wall posters, to the party cake. I even got to take home several delicious Unicorn cookies for my two granddaughters. Little girls love Unicorns. How do I know this? Both my granddaughters sleep in Unicorn pajamas and go to school with Unicorn lunch bags and pack packs!

I saw many beautiful baby gifts at the shower. For my gift, I created a magical Wood Unicorn rocker, personalized for Oliva. In fact, we all loved it so much here at Silly Phillie it has been added to our Unicorn Gift Collection. If you look closely at the photo just above you’ll see the Unicorn Rocker on the gift table, along with ourUnicorn Diaper Cake and Towel Set.

Baby Gifts made to order in Brooklyn

Leave a reply

Silly Phillie® is on a roll these days, in more ways than one.

For starters, the above photo shows yours truly sitting on rolls of fabric in Silly Phillie’s Brooklyn manufacturing facility. The photo was taken as part of an upcoming feature being done on my company by WE NYC.

WE NYC is a first-of-its-kind effort in a major American city to address the entrepreneurship gender gap and empower women business-owners to reach their full economic potential. I am honored to be part of this exciting initiative. I am also anxious to see the profile on Silly Phillie®.

In looking through the many photos taken by the talented photographer, Nancy Siesel, I particularly love this one of me sitting on rolls of fabric. In my opinion it best captures the essence of Silly Phillie’s “baby gifts made to order in Brooklyn” business model. Without fabric to cut, sew and embroider into quality layette items, we would not have the quality ingredients to make our many unique baby gifts.

“Baby Gifts Made to Order in Brooklyn” Keeping us on a Roll!

Many of our competitors have chosen to outsource manufacturing of baby gifts overseas. Silly Phillie® has taken a different approach. We make our baby gifts to order in Brooklyn, NY. There are many benefits in doing it this way. They are:

We’re able to offer a superior quality product
We can personalize and customize baby gifts
We’re better able and quicker to respond to special requests by customers
Making products in the USA adds to the economic well being of Americans

A made to order in Brooklyn business model may limit our company’s growth potential. Nevertheless, it has kept Silly Phillie® on a roll for more than 30 years.

I’ve always felt that bigger is not necessarily better. Better is better all the time.

Buy Buy Baby and Bed Bath & Beyond is in the process of launching a new program featuring Silly Phillie® baby gifts. It is the first time these two retailers will be selling Silly Phillie® baby gifts.

All of us at Silly Phillie® are thrilled with the opportunity to partner with these two fine retailers. Their large customer base should mean significant additional exposure and sales for our line of unique baby gifts.

But the thing we are most proud of is that Silly Phillie® is the brand they chose to offer personalized baby gifts for the first time. This is a significant step for these retailers and we are honored that they have placed their trust in our company for this new initiative.

Baby Gift Ideas- The Original Baby Hoagie Gift Set

Leave a reply

The Original Baby Hoagie Gift Set

The Baby Hoagie™ was created more than 20 years ago by Silly Phillie® yet it remains a highly popular choice today among those looking to give a unique baby gift.

Cleverly presented to look like the “hoagie” sandwiches made famous in Philadelphia, this tasty looking baby gift set is actually made from 100% cotton layette items. Each Baby Hoagie™ is made to order in the USA, and can be ordered for a baby boy, baby girl, or in neutral to work as a baby shower gift.

Silly Phillie® has sold thousands of Baby Hoagies over the years to the delight of new parents. The success of the original inspired the introduction recently of the Vegetarian Baby Hoagie. This one has a “healthier” fruits & veggies theme highlighted by a cute “Give Peas A Chance” embroidery design on one of the layette items.

So if you’re searching for baby gift ideas, a made to order Baby Hoagie® might be the thing that satisfies your appetite best.

By the way, a consequence of selling so many Baby Hoagies is that most people now assume Silly Phillie® must be from Philadelphia, especially in view of our name. The truth is we’re from Brooklyn, New York, not too far from the wonderful city of brotherly love.
