I was sooo excited to get a message from one of my customers sharing a link to her baby's room featured in Ohdeedoh (now part of Apartment Therapy). And there's my mermaid print! Woohoo! I made this mermaid print to go with Heather Ross's Mendocino mermaid fabric line, which I also have in my daughter Ivy's room (the pink version). So here's some pictures of that as well.
Alright, I just did a post for Land of Nod, but I've got to share the adorable additions to their Bla Bla line. These are relatively pricey compared to your average stuffed animal, but they are so worth it. They are completely fair trade, handmade, and amazing quality. Here's some that would be perfect in a boy's room. I have a doll for each of my girls, and despite the taunts that your kids won't care a lick about "designer" toys, my girls LOVE theirs. Jewell sleeps with hers (we named Lollie) every night.
My favorite girls' bedding set that I've seen is the "Brooke" bedroom set from Pottery Barn Kids (last image above). How cool is it that Target did a pretty good knock-off job! I know the Brooke set won't be around when Jewell moves to a twin-size bed, but for now I am excited to have just purchased the toddler "Love & Nature" bedding set from Target. I would also like to get the hedgehog beanbag chair. Especially since right now the whole collection is on sale (and it was already affordable to begin with). The toddler comforter and sheets set was only $22. Image below. The website says it's out of stock, but I was lucky to find one at the store.
The bar is being raised, Etsy sellers. My latest discovery, Aunt Bucky, makes out-of-this-world-cute baby girl clothes and baby bedding that would rival any big brand. Because the fabrics, attention to detail, and construction aren't anything you could reproduce yourself, it's not cheap (not that I think it's at all overpriced). For $100 a dress, these are creations that demand anyone take Etsy a little more seriously! Oh, how I want to do my next baby's room in one of these colorful bedding sets!
