How about a funny cartoon portrait of the kids to adorn the livingroom wall instead of the usual pretty photographs?

Designer and Illustrator Ryan Feerer creates funny personal cartoon portraits of people and their favorite things based on a photo.

Underneath is a couple of examples of portraits which Ryan Feerer has made for Randy and Brent.

You can get your cartoon portrait at Ryan Feerers website (contact him for price), or at Elsewares, for 125.00 USD.

Girards wooden toys and games are the kind of things you buy because you just cant take your eyes off of it.

Except for the obvious uses of these toys, any of Girards toys would also work nicely as ornamental pieces. Exploring the wonderful detailed decorations of each toy and game could occupy a baby or toddler for ages, and the lovely colors and shapes will work nicely as decoration in any nursery.

The lovely colors and shapes makes Girards wooden toys something a toddler might wish to try and eat, so keep an watchful eye on any hungry toddler playing with them!

Wallters The Slat Rack has a beautiful cartoonish- and childish feeling over it.

I love the way the “hooks” looks all randomly placed, and that the shapes of the “hooks” are slightly different from eachother. It makes me think of a cartoon fence.

The Slat Rack is made out of powdercoated steel, and is available in white, orange, green and brown.

It costs 145.00 USD and can be bought in Wallters online shop.

The little YOLO are environmentally responsible paints in fresh colors. The paint is made by borrowing some of nature’s natural elements and combining them with the environmentally responsible paint, which results in a VOC free paint that is safe for the environment and people. little YOLO paints are certified by Green Seal®.

I can’t think of a better paint to use if you are going to paint the nursery in preparation for a new baby, and want a big sister or brother to take part in it.

little YOLO paints can be purchased at a retailer near you.
