There are so many things that turn a house in to a home – from books to souvenirs and everything in between. One of my must haves to make a house a home is art; lots of it and in every room. I’m always looking to add to my collection of wall art and my latest find are these adorable black and white prints for a kids room. How cute are they?

The cutest black and white prints

Whimsical art
December 11, 2014
With our recent house move I’ve got a million decor ideas floating around in my head. There are so many things and styles I like that I know it’s going to be hard to narrow it down and choose one particular style of decor. With Anya’s room too I keep flitting from a vintage style to something more modern. Then of course there is the art for her walls. I’ve been collecting all the kids art I like on a pinterest board but when it comes down to choosing just one or two pieces for her room, I really don’t know how I will manage. My latest find are these quirky water colour style prints that I’m loving. I love their expressions and the whimsical style of the characters too. This collection is by Mrs Mighetto and you’ll find most of the range at Mokkasin. One more fab art collection to add to my ever increasing choices! How will I ever choose?!
A shifty eyed bear and his friends…

One of the most fun parts of decorating a kids room is choosing something for the walls. As there is so much wonderful art out there, picking isn’t always easy. I’m still trying to choose something for my daughters room and I’ve already been looking for a year now! But my problem isn’t not finding the right prints, it’s finding too many that I love. And this is my latest discovery… how adorable is that circus elephant? I’m also drawn to the simple palette of mainly black and white with touches of colour. Just lovely!
These kids posters are created by Kerry Layton, an illustrator from North London. She is a mama of 2 who recently re-discovered her love for drawing which resulted in her setting up a little boutique to sell her prints. Called Seventy Tree, the shop sells mainly prints and postcards but there are some super cute pocket mirrors too, all adorned with Kerry’s drawings. My favourite is the elephant but I’m also drawn to the close up of the bear whose shifty eyes are making me wonder what naughtiness has transpired. Favourites aside, they’re all quite wonderful.
Unashamedly girly art so pretty!

I’m on the hunt for some cool art prints and posters for my daughters room. Her walls are bare (apart from a feature wall with the gorgeous pip early bird wallapaper) so I have a blank canvas. I’m loving the idea of putting up lots of different prints, posters and postcards in close proximity to each other. When I’m looking for unusual, off the beaten-track art for kids rooms, I often head to etsy because I know I’ll find something and sure enough this time I found Lily Moon from Cyprus. I loved it! Lily Moon is unashamedly girly but not cutesy and that works for me. The art is inspired by imaginary stories and there is something about each one that draws you in and allows you to make up your own story. I also love the old fashioned feel of the drawings and the soft colour palette. One of my favourites is the little girl with the rabbit called ‘Alice’. But they’re all magical and I think I might just have to get some for my daughters wall collage.
