belly casts

I just love how creative people can be when it comes to their belly casts!  Some people get them professionally done, while others DIY, but they all turn out so unique and beautiful.  What do you like better, plain, or painted?

Super Cute Nursery {Featured on Spearmint Baby}

I saw this Carter’s Modern Nursery on Spearmint Baby and just had to share it with all of you!  I just love the color combination and the playfulness of it all.  The great thing is that it can easily transition from a nursery to a little boys room!  If you’re excited as I am, check out the rest of the amazing photos here!

Colors That Inspire {Orange}

Orange is a great color to bring Fall in with, don’t you think?  It’s vibrant and warm with a whole lot of pizazz!  I’ve been very attracted and inspired by the color orange lately, so I thought that I’d share a few wonderful product that are drenched in this fabulous color!  Enjoy!

1.  This Fitted Stripe Crib Sheet at Giggle is made from 100% Organic Cotton.  It’s temporarily out of stock at the moment, but you can visit Giggle and they can email you when it’s back in stock.  I thought this was just too cute not to share.

2.  Meet Bob.  Bob is an Orange Odd Duck by Boon Inc. at Amazon.  He is PVC Free and air tight to avoid trapped wather and mold growth.

3.  I’m still not quite sure how I feel about glass baby bottles, but this sure looks great!  This LifeFactory Wee-Go Glass Baby Bottle can be found at OompaToys.

4.  This Fresco High Chair in Harvest Orange by Bloom is so sleek and modern for that baby that has everything.  It can be found at CSNBaby.  Best of all the seat moves to a laied back postion as well!

5.  This Silicone Baby Freeze Tray is the perfect way to freeze your baby’s food in the perfect sized portions.  The tray doesn’t absorb flavors and they say you can reheat the food in the same tray, but I only see this working if you have one portion left.  Otherwise you’d be re-heating all fo the portions at once, right?  Anyway, it’s a great idea!

6.  This Skip Hop Duo Deluxe Orange Nappy\Diaper Bag is a mouthful to say, however, it’s very durible with tons of pockets!  Best of all, it is a great stroller bag.  It can be found at Tots n Tales.  The price is pretty steep in this economy, but it’s still nice to dream.

It’s all in the letters…

What a fabulous idea to decorate your baby’s nursery with the alphabet in a very mature manner.  The Alphabet Mural tutorial is posted at Project Nursery, so be sure to check it out!  I just love the overlapping letters in the light shades of blue and they go great with the bedding.  I like how this nursery looks clean, crisp, and classy.

This Baby Block Cake featured on MarthaStewart.com is a great was to celebrate the coming of a baby. All it is is a sheet cake cut into square blocks and covered in fondant.  It seems a bit time consuming, but well worth the effort.

Over at the hostesswiththemostess.com, they have have a great way to celebrate a baby shower using the alphabet.  Even the placeryemats have the letters of the alphabet on them!  I do love how they used the pacifier as a way to hold the silverware together on each plate.  Enjoy!

Precious Pillow | Elle & Evans

This precious little pillow from Elle & Evans would be fabulous in any little girls nursery or room!  This Bunched Flowers pillow measures at 16″L x 10″H and is made by hand in San Fransisco out of Dupioni Silk.  It is stuffed with down feathers and has an invisible zipper.  Dry clean only.  You can get it personalized with a name, initials or a monogram if you’d like.  Visit their site for more adorable pillows, including ones for boys!  Enjoy!

Nursery Silhouette | By Decor8

What a fabulous way to decorate your baby’s nursery!  Holly over at Decor8 painted this city-scape silhouette with her children using black chalkboard paint. I love this idea because it’s great for a nursery that would eventually transform into a toddler room and even pre-teen bedroom.  This way you don’t have to update the walls as your child grows, just the furniture.  I would also like to see something like this in a playroom!  Enjoy!
