I know there was a thread on nursery essentials at some point, but I can't find it by searching. If someone has that link, could you post it? I am trying to keep my list to the bare essentials.

Thanks!

Maybe Julia's thread "What you need/what you don't?"

Thank you, Kristin! That is really helpful.

Just had to post this: "Lil DaVinci" child's artwork frame, linked on casapinka.com. Mounts on the wall, holds up to 100 of your kid's masterpieces, displays the top one. Great idea, definitely has a future in my house.

Odd question...but does anyone know what that collar style is called on baby t-shirts - where the back and front cross over eachother at the shoulder? I'm looking for patterns to make adult sized shirts with that style.

Not sure, but I think that's called an envelope something.

Hi OED - It's called a lap tee. Hope that helps!

mjoe: thanks - but that's not it...envelope collars are some sort of lapel-ish thing. I appreciate the effort though!

cc: that's it! thanks so much!
