ducduc on TV

Log on to LXTV and see George Oliphant and Esther Sadowsky create a nursery on Baby Room Rescue. They take a small room and turn it into a colorful nursery. It features the dylan crib and parker changing table and collins rocker. Check it out here.

Create the perfect kids rooms!

With resources from 1st Dibs and ShopAD, including ducduc and Masongray, you can put together all the things you like in one clever portfolio system and create the perfect children's room. You can find great vintage pieces on 1st Dibs from around the world and new furniture and fabrics, and textiles on ShopAD. We love that you can keep everything in one place and share them with your decorator or friends. Start decorating!

Back to School!

Homework, yuck. Why not make it as enticing as possible (is that possible?) Take a look at one of our many desks; austin, alex, morgan, cabana, or campaign. We also have chairs, hutches and bookshelves that you can use to create a special place for studying, reading, the computer or all three. Offered in many colors and wood finishes, and small and large sizes, we are sure you will find something that fits your style. And will make the kids look forward to homework.

Good luck!

Fun Table Cloth!

Here is a matte black oilcloth that you can cover the table with and write on.  Order by the yard so you can get just what you need.  Fun for all!  We are a big fan of the chalkboard concept and use it in many of our products like the parker armoire and parker playtable and the sam playtable.   Anyone for tick-tack-toe? 

Inspired by...

Interior designer Amanda Moore and her use of color and style in this modern kids room.  The apple green wall is the perfect backdrop for the all white modern bunk bed.  The contrasting pink comforter adds to the color palette and the ikat style pillows give good texture and pattern. The vintage armoire is a nice balance to the mid-century rocker and lamp.  And the green suitcase keeps it fun!  Check out her work at Re:place.  And get inspired!   

ducduc custom

One of the great things about having a factory in Connecticut is we are able to offer custom colors, designs, and finishes. At ICFF 2008 we launched ducduc custom, which really just means, give us a call with your custom requests! Our designers can even do color renderings of your  room  so you can see how everything would look. 

New for Fall 2008

At the ABC Show in Las Vegas (that is the All Baby and Child Show for those of you who may not know and are not in the kids retail business) we are going to launch  several new designs.  A new austin playtable, a new twist on our campaign collection, a modern pink cabana vanity and  canopy crib with Tillet fabric and more storage solutions and options that can work with our desks.  They will be up on our site soon!
