How do you display all of your kids' precious artwork? It's an age-old parenting conundrum. Between school projects, art they bring home from summer camp, or just creative time they spend around my kitchen table, I end up with way more a…
We've seen tons of amazing portrait artists we've absolutely loved (and hired) over the years, but the collaboration between photographer Anna Angenend and illustrator Amy Snyder may just be my favorite yet. These artists create custom p…
If you're feeling a bit #clambitious about that bucket of shells you and your kids collected on your beach vacation, we've got good news for you. Here, we've rounded up some of our favorite seashell art projects for those summer finds, g…
I'm long past the days of decorating a baby's room (sniff), but when you find inspirational nursery prints this wonderful and beautifully designed, it's a wonder we ever used to settle for those ubiquitous licensed children's characters …
I love that it's become par for the course these days to raise our girls with the knowledge that they can do whatever they want and be whomever they aspire to be -- astronaut, organic farmer, singer, plumber, President. And we're all hop…
My daughter's ideas for how she wants to decorate her room change daily, sometimes by the hour, so I'm having a hard time keeping up. Does she want turquoise walls, a hand-painted mural, or are we going with that all-white walls and brig…
I have always loved the bright, bold patterns from the iconic Finnish design house Marimekko , and now I can refresh our summer wardrobes with some of their famously fun outfits without running up my credit card (well, too high) as Marim…

The exciting new Target Pillowfort collection of kids' decor launches today at last, and has come along at just the right time. There's something about being cooped up inside all winter that makes me want to redecorate. Every room. I'm g…
If you spend as much time at your desk as each of us do, then you probably understand the challenge of keeping it organized. In fact, you might have incorporated that into one of your New Year's resolutions. (Again?) We so get it. The st…
It's amazing how many printable 2016 calendars there are online now -- although admittedly they're not all style. Now that I've finally investing in some good thick paper and become like a printable maniac, I spent a ton of time looking …
Now that it's officially December, I will soon unpack and set up my childhood nativity set, even if our holidays are largely secular nowadays. However after three kids who turned my nativity into a sort of dollhouse toy each year, it's t…
It's about this time every year that we need to ramp up our efforts to get our homes organized and looking awesome for holiday guests. It's like, what the heck happened to all that spring cleaning I did six months ago? Yeah, well, welcom…
I've seen all these DIY tutorials around the web lately for handmade knot pillows and if you have as well, these images may look familiar. Only after a whole lot of searching and secret sourcing, turns out the original photos are not fro…
If you had told me, way back when, that one of my favorite tracks off Licensed to Ill would end up being the anthem of new parenthood -- and not of rockin' this party eight days a week -- I'd never have believed you. And yet there I was …
I always love finding and sharing European brands for kids that we don't see so regularly around our parts, but mostly, they're actually in Europe. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but you know, shipping. Well it turns out a French ex…
I was never a musical crib mobile kind of parent. And now that there are so many options for piping in lovely music into a child's room -- as in, lovelier music than that tinny awfulness in most crib mobiles -- I love the idea of just a …
Once again, Martha Stewart has announced her American Made competition finalists and I always love supporting them. It's such a great platform for smaller, indie makers to get more exposure, especially those producing wonderful products …
Sometimes you just see some random thing that you didn't know you were looking for at all and say okay, now I want that. Such is the case with the fun music genre pillow covers from Quirk & Rescue. I'm totally smitten with these colorful…
I'd like to preface this post by saying that I know inspiration quote art prints aren't everybody's jam. Kristen, for example, prefers funny inspirational quotes for her walls. Her picks are hysterical, but I admit that when I'm in the m…
While there are certain must-haves for school, like backpacks and lunch boxes , we always love finding the coolest school supplies that just make things a little more fun this time of year. Whether you're helping your kid express his or …
I've definitely been looking for cool playroom ideas lately for my own son. Because between the art supplies in the kitchen, the Play-Doh in the dining room, and the pretend workbench and kitchen in the basement, my preschooler is quickl…
I've been feeling like my house has gotten a little out of control here at the end of the summer, so I'm taking advantage of our new back-to-school routine this week to get started. (And yes, I'm one of those moms with the crazy early sc…
