What happens when you cross an artist and a doctor? Radiology Art , it seems. Artist Satre Stuelke took his fascination with everyday objects, and his fascination with radiology, and created one of the most avant-garde, unique, and downr…
Of course my child, like yours, is an absolute genius, but even he wasn't able to tell time when he was a newborn. So why get one of this adorable bamboo Baby Owl Clocks for the nursery? How else can you regale your friends with stories …
Telling your child to grab a marker and go scribble on the walls is right up there with asking them to run with scissors. Unless you're talking about Idea Paint , which basically turns any surface into a dry erase board. It's easy to app…
When my boys were babies, I spent a lot of time looking for cool, original things for them -- clothes and bedding and accent pieces for their rooms . But in a strip mall world, that meant a lot of shopping, and no mama has time for that.…
My son and I are currently in heavy negotiations over the impending redo of his this-is-it-until-you-go-to-college room d?cor . I've already said no to black walls, but the thing we both agreed on instantly were using these Critters wall…
If you are like me and have a ton of photos that need to go on the wall, but you lack the motivation to frame and hang them, Stickr has got something to make the process a whole lot easier. We've recommended their more sophisticated reus…
My husband has a bit of an obsession with graphic representations of homes, making no effort to hide his loud praise for them when he sees them on our friends' walls. I wasn't entirely in his camp until discovering the handmade little ci…
I used to love the show Happy Days--remember Arnold's and all the sports pennants hanging all over the walls? (You do remember Happy Days, right? I can't be that old.) I guess that's why I loved these personalized felt pennants from Kris…
In my want-to-but-can't traveling state, I can easily identify with Jennifer Hill's Places I Have Never Been collection where she takes a city she's never been and develops a pattern for it, using the pattern in fun prints, calendars , a…
There's a place for tradition, and there's a place for innovation, and there is a place for both side by side. Sub-Studio design's new nursery rhyme prints are a perfect combination of age-old nursery rhymes from past generations and a b…
There aren't too many pink posters I'd hang in my daughters' post-feminist non-pink bedroom, but artist and graphic designer Robin Rosenthal's counting bird poster would easily make the cut. When we first found her original counting bird…
For years, I dreamt about a playroom -- a place (that wasn't my living room) where my boys could make a mess with their superhero toys and have pillow fights and stand on the furniture without making me insane. Now that we have a playroo…
Just when I thought nothing else could be done with the alphabet, I discover the swanky alphabet prints from Paperfingers and my mind is instantly changed. Each print features a letter and corresponding word along with a fantastic graphi…
My refrigerator is a time capsule of my son's life to date, covered with school pictures that show how much he's changed over the years. Especially the awkward ones. Unfortunately, each one is pretty much a glorified mug shot, only with …
Since turning five and seeing all her similarly aged friends losing teeth, my daughter has become obsessed with the tooth fairy. And while I love all the fantastic tooth fairy pillows we've found here at Cool Mom Picks, I don't think I c…
When it comes to kid's room decor, I never considered bugs and small crawly critters as a theme, mostly because aside from a few cute ladybugs, I've yet to see too many designers do something wall worthy with beetles, grasshoppers, or fr…
My friend tells me she's looking for some robot-themed stuff for her baby boy's room and I start poking around Etsy for her. Next thing you know, I'm drooling over these robot light switch plates from Robot Candy. One is cooler than the …
It doesn't take much to get me pining for Paris, but Bastille Day turns that urge into a full-on achey craving. So wouldn't you know I'd have to go and stumble upon this beautiful French alphabet poster from Bibitty just when the airfare…
"Say, is that a 1950's original Davy Crockett costume beautifully framed on your wall?" "Why yes, yes it is." Petrie Point Designs has taken recycling to a whole new level with their Petrie Pint vintage collection. Susan Petrie-Badertsch…
Earlier this week, I was part of a group of design and parenting bloggers flown out to Chicago by Kmart and plied with chocolate fondue, before meeting the talented and extremely passionate Kmart home design team who gave us a big sneak …
I still remember loving the drain in our bathtub growing up, because it looked like a happy face to me with the lever for a nose. Shockingly, it would seem I'm not the only one who noticed such things. In fact, the latest floor covering …
I don't have a lot of hand painted art on my walls, especially in the nursery. But I can easily change that with Brooklyn-based Rebekah Potter's diminutive BloKs , essentially 3.5 x 5" wooden blocks with a word and matching illustration,…
I am utterly taken with the limited edition French alphabet print from Barcelona-born artist Silvia Portella, just introduced at L'Affiche Moderne. And not just because it's refreshing to see a bee under A instead of B, but because the 2…
I love the idea of a growth chart, but I'd never found any that appealed to my decor sensibilities, which are admittedly a bit quirky. Then I got a peek at the Dust Bunnies height chart from UK graphic wall art shop Spin Collective , whi…
