here it is!

Last week when I posted about art for children’s rooms I was inspired by a print that I had seen a few days before.  I then spent about 2.5 hours looking for it, and could not find it. But, hooray!!! I have found it.

in love with mae

I am head over heals in love with Mae! The perfect collaboration of Peta, Bec and Emily from Australia.  These reusable, transferable, and dreamy decals are ready for anyone with an imagination.  Unlike many decals these can be moved around, tussled up and used again.  Made from fabric and eco inks they are a perfect playmate for your little one.

Or not so little one. I literally screamed when I came across this lovely lady. I think that we might need to move to accomidate this amazing gal in our house!

babypocalypse

With all of the winter storms on the East Coast last year there has been a bit of a baby boom going on around here.  At one point this summer I knew more than 15 people that were expecting.  That’s just nuts! Almost all of the babies have been born by now, and I am happy to report are doing well.

With all of these little ones cropping up there have been a lot of great nursery ideas floating around. I keep coming across some super cute prints that I would love to have, but really would be perfect in a baby place. Here are a few of them.

Here they come!

I’m not sure if anyone else is experiencing this, but it seems like everyone is pregnant right now. I know about 15 people who are expecting between this week and late December. It seemed like every week I was getting exciting news from another friend. I can’t wait to start meeting all the little ones, and see my friends families grow.

Last week I was lucky enough to travel down to Miami and co-host my first babyshower of this baby boom! The shower was for my best friend Alexis who is due in just a few weeks. She has spent the past 8 months preparing her house, and researching everything that she might ever need to know. Fortunately she has been sharing some of this knowledge on her amazing blog.

We had an early afternoon brunch shower with an intimate group and it was such a fun and relaxing event. Here are a few shots of the food… I forgot to take some of the people!

Sea LIfe

It seems as though the world has become completely nautically obsessed. I cheer this movement on, and hope that it is the demise of the bird which has been flitting around for quite a few years now.

A few years ago I stumbled across the artist, Tamara Mogendorff and have been in love with her work ever since.

I was updating my blog today, and going through links that I have saved under bookmarks. This area seems more like a black hole than a way of keeping track of things for me! At any rate, I came across her web site again and was thrilled to see these amazing soft sculptures.

There are more where these came from and for sure worth a look. Also very cute for baby, for all my pregnant friends out there!

When I first started writing this post I had a very specific idea of where I wanted it to go, then I logged onto polyvore and lost an hour of my life, and all direction for this post. So please forgive my for the completely opposed aesthetics.

 


I did also want to share this awesome bag form Jack & Lulu that I fell in love with at the Stationary Show and just had to have for myself!



Off to read more of The Girl Who Played With Fire, by Stieg Larsson…
