bumGenius Color Guide: Do you have all of the shades of the bumGenius rainbow?
Oh, the Wonderful Colors of bumGenius!
I love bumGenius diapers and I'm guessing you do too! Lots of focus has been on bumGenius prints lately. While the prints are beautiful, there are also so many shades of great bumGenius colors. The bumGenius brand includes the Flip, 4.0 Pocket, Newborn, Freetime All-in-One, and Organic Elemental styles. At any one time, bumGenius generally has anywhere from 10-15 colors. Avid collectors will want to make sure that they have one in every shade. Even if you aren't a collector, you may want to find the specialty colors to coordinate with particular outfits or photo shoots.
