Star Nursery Style on a Walmart Budget

You have a dilemma.  You love the clean, modern lines of high end crib brands like Oeuf, but you don't have $1000 to spend on a crib.  Your answer: Walmart.  Yes, Walmart.  Their line of Baby Mod nursery furniture looks almost identical to many of the Oeuf pieces, at a fraction of the price, and their cribs in particular have been getting rave reviews.  And if you think spending lots of $$$ on a crib will bring you a safer place for your little one to sleep, think again: the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission requires all cribs to meet the same safety standards.  So, below are two pics: one of the Oeuf Classic Crib and one of the BabyMod Parklane crib.  Can you tell which is which??

You can find the Baby Mod pieces online at Walmart here.  Now go use that money you saved to furnish your own crib (new couch, anyone?). 

Sign of the Times

I am loving the trend to decorate with Zodiac signs.  It's a fresh and subtle way to personalize your child's room.  A few of my favorites are below:

Leo Zodiac Pillow, Serena and Lily, $88

Capricorn Zodiac Art, Serena and Lily, $98

Pisces Pillow, Jonathan Adler, $98

What's your sign?

Bohemian Rhapsody

If you are in the process of decorating a nursery or child's room, and you haven't met Annette Tatum, stop what you are doing. Now.  Go visit her site and you'll be fast friends, promise.  I've always loved her bedding (my twins have coordinating bed skirts from her line).  However, I've fallen in love all over again now that she has come out with her "Bohemian Inspired" collection.  Ikat prints for a bumper, who would have thought?  Start your future fashionista out right!
