The kids are all right!!

How cool it is to see designers taking an interest in children. I love the idea of a seating area just for the children and when you can make it look as good as the grown up furniture, why not go ahead and plan a special area just for the kiddos too!


Loll Designs has created a small but nice line of outdoor pieces for children. Comfortable seating for the toddler to tween crowd. The pieces are crafted out of durable, washable, and recycled high density polyethylene. The company only uses recycled materials in the making of their furniture pieces and the colors are great. From black to sand they all look glossy and will stand up to the all the little one's can throw at them.










Kartell has a "baby" version of the coveted Louis Ghost chair. The Lou Lou Ghost chair is everything we have come to expect from Kartell and the brilliant designer Philippe Starck. The iconic Ghost chair is on my list of must have furniture pieces.














Barbie celebrated her 50th Birthday and Philippe Starck commemorated it with a Lou Lou Ghost chair of her very own. Of course, the color is pink and the chair is all Barbie! One for Mommy and then for the little princess in your life!















The colors are fabulous in jewel tones for the extravagant tea parties under a nice big tree or around a lovely rose bush. Find a cast aluminum tea height table and you will have the perfect look to compliment these flawless chairs.















Jewels of Java have created Grade A teak furniture just for children: A collection called the The Secret Garden.

Your little one's can have a space of their own to explore and enjoy and the set includes a garden bench, chair and a table all constructed as the adult furniture.

Jewels of Java purchases only quality plantation grown teak ensuring the sustainability of local forests and lands for future generations.

Other collections created by Jewel of Java are the Steamer Lounge and side table. Just like mommy and daddy's, they can be positioned in the garden for lazy afternoons or places to enjoy the warm sunshine after an afternoon in the pool.

Last, but certainly not least, is the Marlborough bench and matching chair. The Marlborough bench was inspired by Sir Edwin Lutyen's original 1902 design and it looks just like the adult size bench. All the pieces in the Jewels of Java children's collection are heirloom quality teak, giving your children the option and joy of passing them down to their own children someday.
