New Prints from Oliver Jeffers

September 20, 2011 by · Leave a Comment 

  Oliver Jeffers is one of our favourite artists and children’s book authors. If, like me, you are in love with his illustrations then you can buy limited edition prints from his shop. Since I first wrote about his prints nearly three years ago he has added ten further prints from Lost and Found, The [...]

Jon Bergerman Prints

September 7, 2011 by · 3 Comments 

I’ve long been a fan of Jon Bergerman and his unique doodle style of illustration. We have a piece of his colouring in wallpaper framed in our playroom and everyone comments on it. High Above the Street have three limited edition prints available. Each print is A2 sized, printed on high quality paper, signed and [...]

Sally Elford Northern Lights print

March 18, 2011 by · Leave a Comment 

Much as I love some of the prints out there that are designed especially for kids, there’s a lot to be said for widening your horizons a little when it comes to artwork for the children’s bedroom, and taking a look at some of the art that is just…well, art. For everyone. For starters, you [...]

Minkee prints

January 13, 2011 by · Leave a Comment 

If there were any room left on the walls in Alfie’s room, I’d be buying pretty much everything illustrator Minkee has drawn – I love the simple, bold designs and block tones. The set of three animal gocco prints, above, £32, is too cute for words (I’m particularly enamoured with the tiger) and the haughty [...]

Go Confidently prints

January 7, 2011 by · 1 Comment 

Hot on the heels of Kat’s fabulous Let’s Have Fun Today print find, I had to share these little gems from Australian illustrators Mara and Nicholas Girling, aka Printspace. We love a mantra here at BG and this quotation from Henry Thoreau is certainly something to aspire to no matter what age you are. Printspace’s [...]

Let’s Have Fun Today Print

January 5, 2011 by · 5 Comments 

In the gloomy days of Winter when Spring seems so far away I need a little reminder that sunshine comes from within. So when I spotted this print by Steph Baxter on Print & Pattern I barely hesitated before buying. I’m going to hang it in the playroom and treat it as our manifesto. £9 [...]

Two new limited edition screen prints from Jane Foster have just been released. A lion and an elephant both in Jane’s distinctive style are available in a limited run of 200 each. Each print is A3 size, hand printed and signed by the artist. I’m digging the lion especially after someone commented on her blog [...]

Océchou – Happy Design for Kids

June 24, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

I know I get excited about a lot of stuff (that’s what BG is all about!) but there are times when I have near email blindness…and then I click on a link and get dazzled by the fantastic delights before my eyes. That’s how I felt when I checked out Océchou by Nicole, a designer [...]

World Map Print from Famille Summerbelle

June 11, 2010 by · 1 Comment 

Following on from their immensely popular city maps, Famille Summerbelle have just released a brand new paper cut map of the world. Instantly mesmerising, I am loving the dark vibe from the starry sky. As with all of Julie’s intricate paper cuts it is packed with landmarks and quirky details. The oceans are absolutely teeming [...]

We heart Lulabird a lot here at BG (see Kat’s previous post)- they’ve wowed with us with their retro inspired range of clocks and wall art made from eco-friendly sustainable birchwood featuring oh so wonderful owls, whales, blooms, and a mooseboy. So delightful, we feel that adults will embrace the cool styles just as much [...]

Sarah Jane Studios

May 20, 2010 by · 1 Comment 

There is nothing like seeing a piece of art in context to make you want it. I am loving Take Me For a Walk from Sarah Jane Studios after seeing this nursery from Aubrey and Lindsay on her blog. I’ve been a fan of Sarah Jane’s for a long time now and her strap line: [...]

Loving the work of Imeus Design after seeing it on Print & Pattern yesterday. The rainbow bright colours and old school style are giving me goosebumps. You can check out their store for more details of where to buy but be warned – not all images there are family friendly! Via Print & Pattern.

Personalisied Birthday Posters from Molly Meg

April 16, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

I was having a quick look at the current stock of vintage chairs at Molly-Meg ahead of this weekend’s Kids.Modern when I spotted these cute vintage type face posters. Each one is hand printed by Stephen Kenny from his collection of antique letterpress fonts. The mix of fonts depends on the length of your child’s [...]

Delightfully retro and sublimely coloured the alphabet prints of Paul Thurlby are divine. Each letter is a limited edition print and costs £27 although you can currently buy two and get the third free. You could use them to spell out initials, a child’s name or if you have the wall space you could do [...]
