We’ve seen faux taxidermy for years now, and while Cardboard Safari has been a fixture in the trend, now they’re taking it to the next level!
These printed trophy heads are going to change the way you think about mounted animal heads… again.
Fred (the moose), Eyan (the elephant), and Bucky (the buck) come in Drip, Pop and Grid, paying homage to Pollock, Lichtenstein and Mondrian. $40 each
Check out Merlin the unicorn as well.
Maybe it’s because there are a few pregnant mamas over at Rikshaw Design these days, but whatever the reason, I’m THRILLED that crib bedding sets are back!
There are FIVE gorgeous collections that would make for incredible inspiration for a spectacular, textural nursery.
The sets are sold a la carte with fitted sheets for $40, skirts for $80, quilts for $100 and pillows $30-$68.
And “bravo” on the new plush elephants. I love the 3D style on these and of course, the beautiful patterns! These are $58 while the flatter animal pillows are $52.
So who wants to do a Rikshaw inspired nursery?!
We enjoyed the Happy Chic collection at JCPenney and now there’s a Happy Chic collection specifically designed for the nursery at Babies R Us. With four crib sheets grouped into two color options (pink and blue) and accessories to match, you can now get Jonathan Adler style for your whole nursery.
Olivia Crib sheet ($20), Olivia Blanket ($22), Dust Ruffle ($40), Quilt ($50), Owl Pillow ($20), 2-Piece Owl Wall Art ($28), Text Wall Art ($30), and Bird Print Crib Sheet ($20)
Charlie Elephant Printed Crib Sheet ($20), Quilt ($50), Dust Ruffle ($40), Charlie Baby Blanket ($22), 2-Piece Elephant Wall Art ($28), Text Wall Art ($30), Chain Link Crib Sheet ($20), Charlie Elephant Pillow ($20) and Charlie Lion Pillow ($20)
This is a great way to get Jonathan Adler style for less. Mix a couple of the Happy Chic pieces with your favorite Jonathan Adler Junior accessories for a custom look– whatever is most comfortable for your budget!
The Elephant Needlepoint Throw Pillow features an iconic design in the traditional style of Jonathan Adler Pillows. If it’s out of reach, the Happy Chic Charlie Elephant Pillow has an embroidered ear, eye and heart and might do the job for 1/6 of the price.
It seems that everything Joy Cho touches turns to gold (sometimes literally!). With her graphic design background and through her mega-popular blog, the Oh Joy! brand has just exploded. From early designs like the Hygge & West Petal Pusher wallpaper to her current party collection at Target, it’s been exciting to watch the collaborations she’s developed over the years. Now with the new Oh Joy! for Nod collection, it’s clear to see that there’s just no limit to the goodness we can expect from Joy.
There are two bedding designs– Pattern Party and…
I like that the pieces mix and match easily between the two so there a lot of room to take the patterns and create your own unique look. My least favorite parts of the bedding are the crib quilts, but without them I really love the sheet and skirt combinations. The sets have matching changing pad covers as well as toddler sheet sets and twin versions.
Accessorize the bedding with these whimsical pillows– Ice Cream, Green Heart and Cherry.
As part of the Oh Joy! for Nod Collection, Joy curated an art collection for the Nod Institute of Art. Mix and match your favorite art pieces for the perfectly lovely and coordinated gallery wall.
I’m starting to think I might need the Ice Cream print (though I think I want a much larger version!).
In addition to the bedding and art, one of the most amazing parts of the collection are these lamps…
Dotted Glow Table Shae & Half Karat Base, I Love Lamp and Modern Cube Lamp Shade and Base
There’s also this giant Dotted Glow Floor Lamp that would add a stylish glow anywhere in your home…
The Pinwheel Rug is a colorful statement,
and the Sprinkle, Grey Stripe and Multi Circle Plush Pachyderms are fun gifts.
I love how you can just pick and choose your favorite pieces throughout the collection and you’ll come out with a perfectly decorated whimsical and eclectic space that will be totally blog-worthy. Let me know if you try it!

SISSY + MARLEY‘s nursery designs are usually aspirational, but with a view like that, this one it truly at the top… literally!
While the design of this elegant modern nursery is subtle and sophisticated, the room is actually overrun with a menagerie. It’s hard to count up just how many animals decorate the space, especially if you include the elephants in the Baby Elephant Walk wallpaper.
Another reason I find this nursery exciting is it’s use of ducduc furnishings. It’s hard to find photos of these pieces used very often, but this nursery features an Austin Bookshelf…
and a Morgan 4 Drawer Dresser.
Of course, no top-of-the-line modern nursery would be complete without seating from Monte Design and they’ve selected a Joya Rocker in white for Daniel.
SISSY + MARLEY really know how to find all the most beautiful and luxurious pieces and bring them all together. Congratulations on another phenomenal job. Daniel is a lucky little man who seems to be starting life with the best of everything.

I’ve always been a fan of Zuny, but this new selection of animals in white is particularly lovely. The usual leather and colors might not have worked for everyone, but anyone can find a spot for these cute minimal figures in white.
The white collection includes a Hippo, Elephant, Polar Bear, Reindeer and Penguin. Is it starting to feel a little chilly in here?
These retail for $58 each, but right now (through October 15th), enjoy the Friends & Family 20% off sale with code HEART20 at Serena & Lily.
Not sure why it’s taken me so long to compile my favorites from the H&M Home Baby and Kids departments, but it’s better late than never. There is a lot of fun stuff to work with here!
