Our art and decor categories are some of our richest, which always makes it hard to pare down our faves of 2010. Here, find just a few of our many, many favorites.
Art
I think everything about Custom Toy Portraits (at top) is just magical. There's no better way to preserve your child's favorite stuffed friend--or even you own. -Liz I'm so inspired by the bright, quirky art by Hsing Ping Pan. So fun for a baby nursery but still fitting as your baby turns toddler and kiddo too. -KristenDecor
I'm so happy that Obrien Schridde created a new line of handmade frames that are as elegant as the originals, only at a new, affordable price point. -Liz If you thought mobiles were just for a nursery, think again. The mobiles from Frazier and Wing (now also in collaboration with DwellStudio) would be beautiful anywhere in your home. -KristenNursery Decor
Wallpaper is back, and the designs from Paperboy Wallpaper are so cool, you can stick with them (ha) for a very long time. -Liz I love that decorating a room doesn't necessarily involve a paintbrush or hammer and nails. With wall decals like the urban inspired Alphabet City by photographer Joanne Dugan, you can make your baby's nursery super cool and personal in a matter of seconds. -KristenKids Furniture
The gorgeous eco-friendly designs by Brooklyn mom April Hannah is a fantastic alternative to the typical garish kid furniture out there that will look great in your home and grow with your kids. -Kristen With drop-side cribs officially banned, the Luxo Crib from Bloom gives you a safe, beautiful new way to get that little sleeping baby into your arms faster. It's like they reinvented the crib. -LizAround the House
The Lil Davinci frames made for storing kids' artwork, is about the most brilliant thing in the world. Besides the artwork, of course. -Liz With almost everything in my house kid-ified it's nice to find beautiful goodies just for me. I'd take one of everything at YogaGoat, the Etsy store of talented artisan Amanda Ryznar. -Kristen
