Accessories add style, personality to kid's spaces
Staff -- Kids Today, 10/1/2005
If you're a retailer looking for those items that add the perfect finishing touch, then you're in luck. The accessories category is huge and includes wall art, frames, lamps, decorative wastebaskets, bookends, clocks and so much more. For many kids and their parents, a new accessory or two is the quickest and often least expensive way to jazz up a stale bedroom. And there's truly something for everyone. For example, Jeeto's Band canvas is sure to appeal to tween and teen boys — a group that tends to have fewer choices than younger kids and girls.
Jeeto has just released a new canvas collection that includes a cool Band design that both boys and girls will like. The 9-by-12-inch size retails for $34.95, and the 18-by-24-inch canvas is $79.95.
