Catalina Gonzalez Jorba, the founder and designer of OTM-favorite childrens-wear brand Dondolo, and Santiago Jorba wed in December of 2009 in Cartagena, Colombia. Over the years, they welcomed four boys: Santiago (13), Jaime (10), Luis (8), and Roberto (4). And with the autumn line of Dondolo arriving in time for the little ones on OTM, Catalina is sharing her Dream Over The Moon Baby Registry.
The founder’s personal aesthetic is mix between old and new, vintage and contemporary, and bright and neutral. “I see in color and love being able to match patterns and prints,” Catalina explains. “Getting outfits together mixing new fun fashionable pieces and vintage ones makes me so happy! My home is a mix of both as well, lots of Gracie and DeGournay wallpaper, antiques, modern art, and rooms full of color!”
That philosophy translates to her boys’ rooms and wardrobes as well. “The boys’ rooms are full of their personality and have bold and beautiful wallpapers in their favorite colors,” the mom of four shares. “I love to match them and love to coordinate with them as well!”
When it came time to curate her Dream Registry, Catalina divided the baby items by age. “0-3 months: swaddles, blankets, cotton bodysuits, cotton gowns, burp cloths, hospital outfit, and around 12 [months], either bubbles or dresses for special moments and photos,” she shares. Her must haves include a silver cup or rattle, SNOO bassinet and sleep sack, and a bouncer.
And because Catalina’s children span from four years old to 13, she couldn’t help but add some items for their home—like fine china and glassware. “I believe there always needs to be two seasonal options, an Easter and Christmas set and the 4th would be a fun one!” she exclaims. “That’s the one that I would set the table with when we invite our friends over for pizza night on a Friday.”
Catalina leaves us with her advice to future parents making their Over The Moon Baby Registries: “Add a mix of what you need and keepsakes. I read The Happiest Baby On The Block with my first baby 14 years ago and it literally saved us, so with my 4th, I got the Snoo and truly recommend it!”
