Christianity has long had a firm foothold in the Western world, both in the so-called Old World and the New. Though previous generations of the faithful often practiced their religion with little fanfare, many of today's Christians are very outspoken and demonstrative with their beliefs. Moreover, they want the products they buy and use to reflect their faith wherever possible. One clear example of this fact is the rising popularity of Christian bibs for babies born into religious households.
Now, designer bib products have been around for some time. The fact is that many people alive today were outfitted in those cute bibs as infants. Most had adorable animals, amusing bits of text, and other cute words and images. Those types of bib offerings were popular and remain so in many communities to this day.
In most instances, however, those designs were little more than decorative additions to one of life's little necessities. They served no real purpose, and did little to comport with the attitudes or beliefs of the families that used them. Moreover, the images and words on the products tended to change with great frequency, as trends and fads came and went.
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.
The bib manufacturers have also taken great care to ensure that every product meets the industry standard used for other bibs. Most are made using one hundred percent cotton, which is spun to be as soft and gentle on the baby's skin as possible. That's as important as any message conveyed, since babies can be sensitive to all but the softest of materials.
Most bib products of this nature come in the same basic size, and are designed so that one size can fit any infant from birth to roughly three years of age. They tend to have loop and hook enclosures, making them easy to put on and remove. Finally, they are all designed to be machine washable, and the design printing process ensures that text and images won't fade after a few times around the inside of the washing machine.
That last part is extremely important, of course. Since the baby years only last for so long, most parents have little interest in constantly replacing products that consistently fail to stand up to the washing machine process. By using only the highest quality materials and design techniques, the manufacturers create products designed to last for many months.
For Christians, there are few things that matter more than their Christ-driven commission to share their faith with the world. That commission remains in effect even when newborns come into the family. These bib offerings can offer these families a great way to demonstrate their faith, and can also serve as a constant reminder of their chosen religious path and commitment to serve as examples to the world.
