I'm in the market for a housewarming gift for some friends, which made me think about a housewarming gift that we received after we bought our house. One of my husband's groomsmen got us a set of these glasses that are nearly indestructible, from Duralex. They're made in France, in cafe-inspired classic shapes and sizes and they rock!! I love them so much that I snatched up an extra set that I saw on One King's Lane last year.

Fast forward a bunch of months and I'm having breakfast with a couple friends and I remark to my hostess that she has what appear to be miniature versions of the same glassware I have. Mais bien sur, she says (well, not really, but how cool would that have been, to break out in spontaneous French?), that's the tableware I bought for my kids.
Wha??? Duralex makes kids' stuff, too? C'est magnifique!
How stinkin' cute are these!! |
Her daughter has many, many allergies and sensitivities. She wanted to reduce their exposure to plastic, and found the tableware lines at Duralex for Kids as a great solution.You may remember that I have a problem with itty bitty things...my problem being that I freaking love them!!
Duralex for Kids is no exception. Cute little glasses, matching lunch plates and cereal bowls, OMG it's too much. I might have to plan a picnic.
So go, GO, buy some Duralex for you and yours. Ditch some of the plastic in your kitchen. And then serve some fancy French food to go with.
A bientot,
