The designer bib industry is nothing new, of course. For many years, new parents have been able to choose from a wide variety of bib designs that included everything from clever and funny sayings to images of beloved cartoon characters and cuddly animals. Many of today's young adults spent their baby years wearing those attractive designs.
Still, those designs were basically just for show. They seldom carried any meaningful message, and rarely offered any real insight into the underlying beliefs of the parents who purchased them. In most instances, designs came and went as various fad concepts and trends came into and out of the public's consciousness. There were few lasting messages with eternal significance for those in the faith community.
As people of faith began to urge manufacturers across the economic spectrum to cater more to their specific needs, some designers saw an opportunity to provide baby products that would reflect the parents' faith. Today, baby bib designs are being marketed with a variety of Christ-oriented themes ranging from Scriptural quotes to clever declarations of the family's love for God.
In their zeal to meet those faith needs, the manufacturers never forgot about quality. The bib designs they use are of the same quality used throughout the industry. That means that the cloth is typically spun cotton. That content creates a level of softness that helps to protect sensitive baby skin from rough materials that often cause rashes and other irritations.
The design ensures that all conform to the size specifications used by the industry, and are appropriately sized to fit children until they are three years old. Like other bib products, these use hook and loop enclosures for ease of use. All can be washed in the home's washing machine without any danger of color loss or faded images and text.
The durability of the product is a tremendous boon, since no one wants to have to replace a bib mere weeks after purchasing it. Quality products should be able to survive the washing process without noticeable wear and tear. Because the manufacturers of these products focus on the right materials and techniques, parents can trust that the products they purchase will provide them with months of use.
Christians are called upon to share their beliefs with their fellow man, and that calling doesn't disappear when their newborn arrives. A faith-oriented bib can be a great way to trumpet a family's faith in God while also using timeless and unchanging messages to remind every family member of his or her duty to serve the Creator.
