Jellybean introduces veteran pet product designer Paper Russells

(ALPHARETTA, Ga.) — Jellybean announces the introduction a complete line of accent rugs specifically designed to market to Pet Stores and related retailers. With this new market in mind, Jellybean has signed a contract with veteran pet product designer, Myunghye Kim of Paper Russells.

Jellybean will include six breed specific designs by this talented designer whose images can be found on products ranging from clothing to stationery.

“We are pleased to be able to add the Paper Russells designs to our product line. We have heard from many of our retailers that ‘breed specific’ pet designs are always winners in their stores and Paper Russells is one designer that they ask for by name,” says Rusty Boone, National Sales Manager for Home Comfort, Inc.

Paper Russells incorporates surprising colors with charming animals in smile evoking situations.

Among the new designs being introduced in 2009 is Pooch with Slippers. The “awh” factor in this sweet design is undeniable and irresistable. Another charming scene is represented by Black Lab and Stars. No Lab lover will be able to resist the image of this icon of dogs staring up at the star studded night sky. All of Paper Russells Jellybean rugs are available in size 22″ x 34″ with a wholesale price of $14.75 per piece. The Jellybean brand accent rug is made from a blend of polypropylene and acrylic fibers and is machine washable and suitable for use indoors or outdoors.

Jellybean offers more than 200 designs in a variety of themes. An in store displayer on wheels is also available for the retailer and makes a terrific silent salesman. Pet Stores and related retailers can choose from 31 animal designs – even more if you consider fish and coastal themes.
