Buying unique and affordable art these days is easy thanks to the web. I’m currently in the process of getting a nursery together for my baby due this Fall and I’ve found it’s easy to surf around online and find artwork for the nursery that’s not screaming cheesy commercial cartoon characters. I bought this Rabbit and Flora wood gocco print recently ($28 unframed/ $48 framed) from Petit Collage. You can also surf around Etsy.com using special keywords such as “art” or “prints” to find just what pleases you and your room.
Here are more of my favorites:

Sitting Pretty print ($20) by the yumi yumi shop.

Pink Flowers and Joyous Birds ($18) by Oh Smile’s Shop

The Big Moon Print ($18) by The Black Apple

Family Sweet Family ($20) by Ashley G and Drew.

I can’t help but get obsessed with throw pillows! I always seem to be on the look out the next one to be added to my collection. Pillows are the perfect way to transform a new look to your pad by adding a fresh elements or splash of color to a chair, couch, or bed. And these days there’s nothing like handmade — an applique deer here, an embroidered flower there. I love the variety and whimsical, fresh prints that can be mixed and matched together to make your living quarters your own.
Here’s a roundup of some of the most stylish and cute pillows found on Etsy. Clockwise from left: jamtart baby’s I love Orange Flowers, Olive’s 50’s Birdcage Pillow, arieltelsa’s Lilah Embroidered Leaf Pillow, green room’s Peu Garden Pillow Duvet, Fat Orange Cat’s yellow antelope pillow, and joom’s Plum Cardinal Throw Pillow.
