i don’t normally do a lot of kids and baby posting around here (i get the most angry emails when i do. mostly a lot of “don’t turn into a yuppy baby blog you jerk! we don’t all have kids!”) but i couldn’t resist posting some of these gorgeous pieces from eric pfeiffer’s 10 grain company. i just love all the patterns on each piece (and the great product photography). they’re not brand new but considering just about everyone i know had recently had a baby (really, everyone) i figured it might be timely. i wish some of these came in big-people sizes. click here to check out more from 10grain and shop online. [thanks, eric!]
stay tuned for four before and afters up next…

kat nouri at modern-twist is debuting some gorgeous new products at the gift fair this week. i’m still debating whether or not to go but in the meantime it’s great to get a little sneak peek of what’s coming up. moderntwist will be showing new placemats (including designs by rex ray and matte stephens), doileez (reusable, silicone styles) and a new hide box (among many more). click here for more information on modern-twist. [thanks amy and kat!]

it seems like everyone i know right now has just had, or is about to have, a baby. last night our friends welcomed a little girl into the world and in two weeks our good friends will be welcoming a baby boy. in honor of both of them i wanted to share these new prints from yoon kids. i love the styling of their photos- they’re always so clean and modern. if only all kids rooms were this clean.

neal from present and correct sent over this beautiful alphabet chart of endangered species on the british isles. perfect for kids and parents alike, the poster is printed on recycled paper and is available right here for approximately $36. i love that the packaging is almost as cute as the print- little details like that are always so nice. thanks, neal!
[stay tuned for a new city guide today!]

speaking of little girls, who wouldn’t want to live in this room? i would have loved that pink curtain by the bathroom and the bunny posts on the bed- it’s so sweet and girly.

boodalee was one of my favorite new companies showing at icff this summer. in a sea of children’s bedding and furniture designs, their bright colors and bold patterns stood out as a cheerful alternative to the rest of the pack. so i was excited to hear from jennifer at boodalee that they’d just launched four new collections (which debuted at the abc kids expo this weekend) full of whimsical patterns that are sure to please both child and parent. the new collections (seen above and below) includes: “space“, “castle“, and two color versions of a pattern called “world” printed on 250-thread count 100% combed cotton percale. you can view the new collections, boodalee’s existing line and shop online right here. enjoy! [thanks, jennifer!]
