Baby Bunch Bouquet of Baby Clothes Review + Giveaway (Closed)

I have this ongoing issue when shopping for new baby presents: do I give something cute, unique and not as practical or something purely functional that’s really not fun? I get really excited when I come across a product that actually falls into both categories, like the Baby Bunch. Designed by a husband and wife team specifically to combat the bland baby gift, the Baby Bunch mixes form and function and is a creative, practical gift for new babies.

When presented with the opportunity to review a Baby Bunch, I wanted to accept to be able to share more information about the product. But, without a newborn in the house, it simply didn’t make sense for me to do it. Luckily, I knew just the person: my friend Monica, who (at the time) was weeks from delivering her daughter. She received the Baby Bunch Medium in Pink to review (and went into labor the next day! So consider yourself warned that the Baby Bunch may induce labor).

Monica’s Experience

When I first opened the package of the Baby Bunch Bouquet I was so excited to take a closer look. The packaging was just too adorable, and what was inside was even better. The bouquet really looked like a real bunch of flowers, it was impossible to tell which flower was what clothing item. I was torn because I wanted to leave it like a cute bouquet, yet I wanted to open each “flower” and see the little pieces. I made myself wait a few days and had it displayed nicely, just as if it was a real bunch of flowers.

After I decided to open each bud, I could tell the quality of the knit of each piece was really nice.  The bunch came with 2 pairs of socks, a bib, an onsie, a hat, and a t shirt.  Each piece was very soft, and a nice gentle color of pink that will go with many outfits. My only complaint is perhaps having two onesies instead of a t shirt, as for a newborn, in my opinion; onesies are the way to go. The sizing says 0-6 months. I immediately dressed my 10 day old daughter in the onesie. It was a bit big, but not too big to wear under an outfit. She will certainly be able to wear it for some time. I had a bit of trouble getting the hat to go back to the proper shape after washing it. But once I sat and played with it for a few minutes, I got it back to the right shape.

I would definitely keep this product in mind when sending a newborn gift to a friend. Especially to someone out of town, as it’s nice to send flowers, but this is so much more practical, but just as pretty. Overall a great product and one that I will definitely consider purchasing for others in the future.

To Buy or Not to Buy

To Buy… The Baby Bunch is a great baby gift because it is both unique, adorably cute AND uber functional as it comes with a collection of newborn necessities. The quality is great and the presentation is top notch. The Baby Bunch is definitely a more practical alternative to flowers and a more creative presentation of newborn clothes.

Or Not to Buy… Many moms (like Monica) prefer onesies to tees and the Medium Baby Bunch only contains one.

Shop! The Baby Bunch offers newborn clothing bouquets in several sizes and colors. The Medium Baby Bunch is $59.95. We also love the Lollipop and Cupcake Baby Gifts, which are very budget-friendly options.

Win! A Medium Baby Bunch!
