Binth Baby Book
So you don’t have a kid? This book will make you want one. I’d been eyeing it online trying to decide whether it was too pricey for a baby book, when the folks at Binth sent me a copy. I opened it and gasped. You will want to caress this book, it’s that good. Each page is silk-screened, and accented with lean silhouettes in sage, pale blue, and black. It’s a limited edition, acid free, heirloom that guides you in recording your baby’s milestones through age three. Worth every penny.
$110 at Binth
