about petunia pickle bottom


 
 
More than three little words, Petunia Pickle Bottom is a lifestyle—a different way of looking at the world. And perhaps nowhere else is that difference more distinct, unique or decidedly fashionable than in the Petunia products themselves. A perennial exhibit of bold lines, daring colors and darling designer details, Petunia Pickle Bottom was created for the steadfast sophisticate inside every woman. Silk brocades, hand-woven tweeds, plush chenilles, intricate cut velvets, and exquisitely detailed embroidery—every one a Petunia hallmark, and every one an expression of motherhood’s myriad facets.

Born out of a desire to bring style and sophistication to the world of modern parenting, Petunia Pickle Bottom was founded in 2000 by a trio of people who pay homage to the chic mommy who makes a statement without saying a word. Plucking the name from childhood (the head designer's father coined the phrase when she was a little one) Petunia Pickle Bottom has become more than a silly sentimental name, it has become the brand to have.

In fact, from its very conception, the Petunia Pickle Bottom line has shown a fearless sense of style distinguishing itself from the once dreaded diaper bag. And what started with an innovative diaper bag has now blossomed into new product categories like Fawn by Petunia—a posh and plush infant bedding line, and Cake by Petunia—a fusion of inspired form and intuitive function that anticipates the mobile mother’s every need. Combining rich European cut velvets and wool tweeds to create sumptuous bags that are at once both modern and forever timeless. By utilizing eye-popping, sophisticated fabrics, and working with only the very best people in the industry, Petunia Pickle Bottom certainly shows no restraint from style.

It is indeed a "collectable" collection of chic baby accessories that are meticulously designed for uncompromising quality busy moms deserve.



Executive Biographies

DeNai Jones - President & Founder
 
Educated at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo with a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Fine Art minor, DeNai brought her passion for creativity to Petunia Pickle Bottom. As a child DeNai’s favorite pastime was to while away the hours with a pile of fabrics, paper, glue, and scissors. Creativity is innate and it was when she set out to find a gift for her friend that she recognized a hole in the market for fashionable and functional diaper bags. With her natural fashion sense and fine art talents, she developed the first Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag. Plucking the name from her childhood (her father coined the phrase when she was a toddler), she took the plunge, and with the help of her husband, Braden Jones and close friend Korie Conant introduced Petunia Pickle Bottom products to stores across the globe. Today, DeNai has seen Petunia Pickle Bottom grow from three to 20 employees, and drawing inspiration from her first born, she focuses on new product innovation, textile development and design—while finding that delicate balance motherhood requires.
