Sticky Tiki wall decals
New Zealand based company Sticky Tiki produces the most amazing wall decals. Quirky, fun and educational, my favourite is Alphabetica, a deliciously alternative alphabet, home to such wonders as F is for Foxy Fox with Freesias, G is for Green Giraffe, in a Grey and Gold frame with Gerberas and Y is for Yak on a [...]
10 Best: Ideas for an aviation-themed room
Neee-oowww! Planes and all things aeronautical are flavour of the month here in Brighton, so I couldn’t resist bringing you a round of goodies for your little high flyer’s room. We’ve raved about Paperboy’s wallpaper designs in the past and their latest, Spitfire (which celebrates the 75th anniversary year of the iconic World War II aircraft) [...]
Rob Ryan & Mini Moderns Wallpaper
Sometimes a little thought pops into your head which is pure genius. An idle conversation one dreary afternoon months ago has resulted in a collaboration between two of my very favourite designers: Rob Ryan and Mini Moderns. This first (seriously hoping not last) wallpaper from the paper cut artist features birds flying through the sky [...]
10 Best: ideas for a robot-themed room
In the 50s, pretty much everyone believed that robots would be commonplace in every home by the year 2000, and I have to admit, having grown up with Tomorrow’s World in the 80s, I kinda hoped it would be true, too. Sadly, with maybe the exception of Japan, our world is lacking in automated help, but [...]
Marina Vandel Mes Livres wallpaper
Got a bookish child? You could do worse than invest in one of French designer Marina Vandel’s cute and colourful wallpapers. Choose from Mes Livres (My Books), or Ma Bibliothèque (My Library) patterns. Panels measure either 130cm or 180cm x 50cm and cost from €50 (plus p&p), Little Fashion Gallery. I love the attention to [...]
10 Best: ideas for a farm-themed room
I don’t know a toddler who isn’t enamoured of Old Macdonald, so a farm-themed room is a bit of a no brainer. Colourful and fun, it works brilliantly for boys or girls and you can ramp up the tractor count if you’ve got a petrolhead on your hands. I took this fantastic print from ByGraziela [...]
Hot New Shop: Little Yellow Birds
The latest online boutique to open its doors is a treat for lovers of children’s interior design. Little Yellow Birds was founded by Jenny and Harriet, two Mamas with a passion for gorgeousness in children’s spaces. When I first browsed through the site it was with a skippy mouse finger eager to see the next [...]

My eyes were on stalks when I moseyed over to Hunkydory Home this morning and clapped eyes on these squirrel, nelly, and owl wall and tile diecut stickers by Swedish designer Julie Nielson. £3.75 each is just too cool for school and an absolute steal for a instant, cheery, and still super stylish update. They [...]
10 Best: ideas for a transport-themed room
So, I was going to make this generally transport-themed, but there was way too much good stuff, so I’ve split it up. Here’s the first, cars, vans and trucks. Hot off the Petit Collage press is this little piece of fabulousness - By Land, a road-based print on maple veneer, from just $15 for the small size. [...]
10 Best: ideas for a weather-themed room
Ever since I first set eyes on Swedish designer Gunila Axén’s frankly amazing Clouds pattern I’ve been smitten with the idea of a weather-themed room. In all honesty, you could kit out a nursery solely in Axén’s icon design – find bedlinen, curtains, lampshades, cushions and storage in a variety of colours at Little Baby [...]
A Peek Inside: The Pippa and Ike Show
When we heard about a slice of kids’ cool opening up on the Gloucester Road in Bishopston, Bristol I knew we would be making a beeline for it on our next trip. The Pippa and Ike Show is a new boutique already creating a buzz amongst the cool Bristol parents. Located a minute away from [...]
10 Best: Ideas for a space-themed room
Space. The Final Frontier. And a fantastic theme for a child’s room. There’s so much material out there that I found this really tricky, but here are a few extra terrestrial ideas. 5… 4… 3… 2… 1… Blast off! On the walls, you can’t go far wrong with Kakemono from innovative French company Carton Chic. Is [...]
Binny Talib wallpaper
One of the things I like best about the internet is the way it allows niche makers to put out stuff that would never have found a market before. And Binny Talib’s whimsical wallpaper is a perfect example of that. Olden days, she’d have had to print it up, ship it to stores, and watch [...]

A great spot by Kat, this Owls of the British Isles wallpaper is part of the debut collection by interiors stylist and former Deputy Decorating Editor of Country Homes & Interiors magazine, Abigail Edwards. Hand drawn and taking inspiration from her childhood, it features ten different types of owl for a spot pure owl geekery. [...]
