Custom Decorating for Kids' Bedrooms: Now It's for Every Mom

There was a time when custom decorating was for only one type of mother. She had hours of time to sort through paint samples and fabric swatches, personal shoppers and interior decorators on call and, most importantly, lots of money.
Today, with a do-it-yourself home improvement show on every TV channel, custom decorating has lost much of its "members only" status. According to a survey conducted by the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co., 90% of mothers from middle income households consider creating a custom look for their children's bedrooms "important" or "very important."
This finding could not be more in tune with the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co.'s mission. "We want to make custom decorating easy, affordable and fun for the everyday mom," owner Vicki Bodwell explained when asked about her children's bedding catalog and website.

In addition to a line of baby bedding and children's twin bedding, the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co. offers vintage fabrics by the yard for custom sewing projects, a line of monogrammable baby gifts and kids' bedroom accessories and "The Custom Corner," a selection of individually custom painted children's furniture pieces.
The Custom Corner aims to simplify the custom furniture process.
Customers first choose an unfinished furniture piece?the Custom Corner offers children's headboards, kids' tables, nightstands, step stools, shelves, drawer pulls and wastebaskets.
Then, using a basic outline, they select from a simple color palette and a variety of decoupaged design accents to create their own piece.

The order can be placed over the phone or at the company's website, http://www.warmbiscuit.com,and is delivered within 4-6 weeks. "We just ask our customers for their design preferences and we do all the work," stated Bodwell.
With traditional customization generally involving an overwhelming amount of choices, working mothers with less free time appreciate a more concise offering.
And, since the decoupaged design accents and color palette were designed to work with the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co.'s baby bedding and kid's bedding selection, there's no danger of ordering a headboard that doesn't match the child's bedroom d?cor. Also noteworthy is the Custom Corner price versus the expense of traditional customization; all children's furniture pieces are priced under $250.

Vicki Bodwell, a Texas native, launched the Warm Biscuit Bedding Co. as a 25,000 catalog mailing in 1999 in the bedroom of her New York City loft.
The Warm Biscuit Bedding Co. currently mails 1.6M catalogs annually and offers its products online at http://www.warmbiscuit.com and in retail baby boutiques..
