I had the opportunity to work with Ereka Ventrini, a parenting guru who hosts a variety of programs for HGTV, ParentsTV.com and Better TV, you may also recognize her from the Apprentice and the Tony Danza Show. Ereka came to Bellini NYC to get some tips on making your dollar stretch  when it comes to decorating your child’s room in this economy. Find out my tips by clicking below and enjoy my big pregnant belly :)

So my first major project back at work was a fun one!  Bethenny, of the NY Housewives, came to our Bellini store in Scarsdale to design her nursery.  We filmed for her brand new show “Bethenny’s Getting Married” which will air this summer on Bravo.  We are such huge fans of the show and Bethenny, and we think her nursery will be amazing.  21_bethfrank_lgl

When we discovered Tyler Mackenzie Designs beaded bracelets (and necklaces!), we knew we wanted to share them with our readers. Started by bracelets4Chicago mom of two, Lauren Rosen, these beautiful baubles are elegant and easy on the wallet. (Each single bracelet is around $15-$22!) We wanted to scoop up armfuls of these beaded beauties. From gemstones such as jade, aventurine and angelite, to gray, black and rose woods, each unique design is interspersed with gold or silver spacers and charms. Choosing the color and combination is the difficult part! But spill the beans and Tyler Mackenzie Designs have teamed up to give a 3 bracelet set away to one lucky reader! Visit the Tyler Mackenzie Facebook fan page to learn more about her fabulous creations. We’ll randomly select one lucky lady from our mailing list. Join today for your chance to win. (It’s simple, enter your email in the join link above.)  Think of it as our Valentine’s Day gift to you! Plus, enjoy 20% off your baby gift purchases at the beans closet on Monday, 2/15 & Tuesday 2/16 by using code: love.

*Winner will be randomly selected and notified on 2/17.
