Adorable Bird Themed Nursery Artwork – Tweet Tweet!

Age 0-1 year, Age 1-3, Nursery & Room Decor, ,

A baby’s nursery will be their first experience of being in their own environment. Along with the loving care of those who cherish them. Many parents have different ideas about what is the best decoration for a girl or boy’s room. Today, with the Internet the choices are endless and infinitely beautiful as well. Here are a few that will make any nursery charmingly aesthetic.

Adorable bird themed nursery artwork

1. Birds on a Tree

This pastel colored textured picture takes nature on a whole other level. Patterned birds of various hues are perched atop tree branches while a fanciful formed tree sprouts branches in every direction. This picture is quiet and calming with a silently moving graphic that will give a baby something pleasurable to look at.  See Birds on a Tree artwork here

2. Alli-Nesting Artwork by Creative Concepts

This hand painted picture is rich with a mix of dark and light hues. However, the color combination will work beautifully in a child’s nursery. Nature takes over with little birds snuggled in their nest, while a butterfly appears to be approaching to say hello. An adoring ribbon used for propping the picture up reminds you of how delicate life really is. See All-Nesting Artwork here

3. Compassion Pink

This all cotton violet hued canvas portrays the act of love in colors. It sets alight the inner feelings of nurturing and vulnerability simultaneously. The display of a young life cared for by their loving parent is what makes this painting so adorable. Soft colors are used as a backdrop with deep rich tones vibrating in the foreground. This is a lovely painting that will work in both a boys or girls nursery.  See Compassion nursery artwork here

Painted children’s room decor from Tatutina

Age 1-3, Bedding - baby & kids, Nursery & Room Decor, , , , , , ,

Tatutina-binsMadelyn is past the 'nursery room' stage so we've been transi
tioning to decor pieces that are more bright and vibrant in color.  Pastels and light colors were wonderful for her first year but I think her room needs brighter colors now.  Tatutina children's room decor pieces are adorable and would be great for any toddler's room.

Tatutina's "Happy painted gifts for a happy lifestyle" are beautifully designed wooden pieces, and are painted with vibrant colors including pinks, purples, blues and reds.  Tatutina uses non-toxic paint and sealers and the edges of the wooden pieces are nice and smooth so I wouldn't worry about Madelyn getting a splinter or licking herself into toxicity.  Yes, I worry about those things!

You can shop by collection such as the Tatutina Flowers Collection pictured here.  Items in the collections include book-ends, a keepsake box, mini-bins, and a wastebasket.  I love the hand-painted look and feel of Tatutina's decor pieces and can imagine that Madelyn will like these pieces well into her tween years if not longer.  The Dinosaurs, Animals and Sports designs are great for a little boy's room.

Prices are in the $20 range.

Tatutina children's room decor and gift items are available at the Tatutina store!

Fisher Price Zen Collection Swing

Age 0-1 year, Bedtime, Nursery & Room Decor

Zen_swing
Fisher Price's Zen Collection combines style and function with beautiful wood accents and a plush reclining seat that swings back and forth and side to side.  Younger babies prefer to rock side to side but I imagine that older babies might bet a little 'sea-sick' swinging side to side so bath and forth seems more comfortable for them.

The Zen Collection swing is sturdy and has exceptional features.  Most of our rooms are full or dark wood furniture so I would have loved to have the Zen swing instead of the bright colored swing with a metal base, that we had for Madelyn two years ago.  She loved sitting in her swing.   The Zen swing has a variety of gentle songs and musical styles that will stimulate baby’s auditory sense or instantly calm her down. 
The entire seat is removable so you can carry it from room to room and the fabric is machine washable.  The Zen swing is the first (that I know of) to have a plug-in option which is a huge money saver!

The maximum weight is 25lbs which equates to an average of two years old.  I doubt a two year old will sit in a swing very long, or at all, but the possibility is there.  

Price: around $200

You can buy the Fisher-Price Zen Collection Cradle Swing at Amazon.com

Color Changing Digital Room Thermometer – Grobag Egg

Gadgets, Nursery & Room Decor, Safety

This is one of the most innovative products I’ve seen in a long time.  The Grobag Egg is incredibly useful and it looks really neat in a baby nursery.  I am obsessed with the Grobag Egg in Madelyn’s room.   I have the Grobag Egg on Madelyn’s armoire so I can easily see if the room is too hot or cold.  Lately, it’s been way to hot so the Grobag Egg glows bright red and has a frown.  The Grobag Egg helped me prove to Tim that Madelyn’s room was too hot especially for her to sleep in and he finally accepted that the air had to be turned down.  Before I could show him the Grobag Egg thermometer to prove that her room was too hot, he said it was just me.. I was the only one that was hot.

When we started using the Grobag Egg thermometer I would yell
downstairs to Tim and tell him how hot it was in her room which ultimately led to the air being turned down!  Thank goodness.  When her
room reaches an acceptable temperature, around 75°F, the egg is a little lighter in color but still has a frown, and when the room is at the most ideal temperature, 61-67°F, the egg is a very vibrant yellow and has a smile.

The Grobag Egg thermometer glows softly and the temperature is backlit so I can see it easily at night while it provides a nice nighlight for Madelyn.

I have a few Grobag Egg thermometers to give away!  Stay tuned and sign up for our newsletter to be notified when the giveaway contest starts.

Baby Sharmooz: a satin headrest for baby

Age 0-1 year, Age 1-3, Bedding - baby & kids, Bedtime, Nursery & Room Decor, Safety

My mother uses a satin pillowcasBabysharmooze and got my son, now 8, hooked on satin pillow cases when he was about two years old.   I don’t blame them.. satin is soft, smooth, and luxurious to the touch.
Adults have use satin pillow cases for years to keep hair under control while sleeping.  Cotton pillow cases tend to grab and break delicate hair which causes the dreaded ‘bald spot’.

The Baby Sharmooz may reduce and/or eliminate balding by allowing the head to glide over the satin headrest. It gets better.  You may ask how the Baby Sharmooz stays put.  The non-slip backing ensures that the satin headrest’s movement is minimal if it moves at all.   The Baby Sharmooz is not intended for use in the crib. Baby should not have any type of blanket or pillow in her crib for the first year or so. 

The Baby Sharmooz is for use in a baby swing, carrier, car seat, and bouncer.  The Baby Sharmooz is just big enough for baby’s head making it easy to take with you anywhere you go.  I’ll tell you a secret.. during the testing phase of the Baby Sharmooz, I used it in the car, for myself.  Who doesn’t love the cool feeling of satin?  Other Sharmooz products include the Royal Sharmooz Pillowcase for older children and adults, satin fitted cribsheets, baby blankets, and burp cloths all available in several colors and styles.

Madelyn loves her Baby Sharmooz and even uses it like a blankie.
