Hidden Gems: Baby Milestone & Nursery Pieces You Might Have Missed

Personalised Newborn Line Art Birth Ruler handcrafted from bamboo and acrylic by Love from Seventeen NZ — $79

Quick Answer

A few of our loveliest baby pieces sit a little further back in the catalogue than they deserve — from pregnancy milestone card sets to the striking Newborn Line Art Birth Ruler. Here's a proper look at eight of them.

Part two of our hidden gems series — this time focused on pregnancy, birth, and nursery keepsakes that are genuinely lovely but easy to miss in a catalogue this size.


Two Pregnancy Milestone Sets — What's the Difference?

We actually make two different pregnancy milestone sets, and it's worth knowing which one suits you.

Lovely Lettering Pregnancy Milestones Set — $49

11 cards, hand-lettered by Courtney at Lovely Lettering, including a reversible "It's a boy / It's a girl" card and a "Waiting for baby" card.

Pregnancy Milestones Set — $49

10 cards in our standard font, covering "We're having a baby" through to your due date — a simpler, more classic option.

For the Whole First Year

Boho Baby Milestones Set — $49

Where the pregnancy sets stop at birth, the Boho Baby Milestones Set picks up from there — 13 cards covering Hello World through to Twelve Months, with a softer, boho-styled font. A lovely alternative if you'd like something a little different from our original First Year Milestones Set.

Statement Birth Keepsakes

Personalised Newborn Line Art Birth Ruler — $79

Genuinely one of the most striking pieces in our whole catalogue. The Personalised Newborn Line Art Birth Ruler is custom-sized to your baby's exact birth length, featuring a line-art silhouette of a sleeping newborn cut from black acrylic, with name, date, time, weight, and length engraved alongside. Minimalist, modern, and deeply personal.

Personalised Acrylic Name Announcement — from $25

A bolder, more colourful option: the Personalised Acrylic Name Announcement is cut from coloured acrylic in a circle or floral scallop shape, with a choice of cursive or playful retro font — a striking piece for birth announcement photos or nursery shelves.


Soft, Playful Name Plaques

Personalised Bow Plaque — $32

A timeless girls' name plaque topped with a delicate acrylic bow in your choice of colour — sweet, feminine, and made to last well beyond the nursery years.

Personalised Checkerboard Plaque — $29

A modern half-arch design with a laser-engraved checkerboard pattern — bold, playful, and full of character for a nursery shelf or bedroom door.

Hush Little Baby Plaque by Lovely Lettering — $40

A genuine collaboration piece: hand-drawn by Courtney at Lovely Lettering, then laser-cut into bamboo. The Hush Little Baby Plaque has quietly been part of our range since our very earliest days — one of the loveliest, most under-the-radar pieces we make.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the two pregnancy milestone sets?

The Lovely Lettering set has 11 hand-lettered cards including a reversible boy/girl reveal card, while the standard Pregnancy Milestones Set has 10 cards in our regular font, running through to your due date.

Do you have a milestone set that covers baby's whole first year?

Yes — the Boho Baby Milestones Set covers Hello World through to Twelve Months, alongside our original First Year Milestones Set from the Keepsakes range.

What is the Newborn Line Art Birth Ruler custom-sized to?

It's cut to match your baby's exact birth length, so no two are ever quite the same size.

Can I add a middle name to the Bow Plaque or Acrylic Name Announcement?

Yes — both are designed to take a first and middle name. If you only provide a first name, that's what will appear in the layered acrylic.
