Lovely idea! I probably won't do them this year since the tree is up and I only have a small collection of cookie cutters but post-Christmas, I will be keeping an eye out for them for use next year! Thanks for the tip.

As a mom who likes modern aesthetics and typography myself, my girls' rooms are fairly neutral but that actually frees us to introduce and rotate colorful toys and books and wall decor without having to be too concerned with having the room decor distract from it. There enough "pop" in kids' toys, books, and artwork to bring color to the room and babies see strong contrasting black and white graphics better at this stage anyway. I can't say this for everyone else but the bedroom is primarily for sleeping and resting and quiet time (at least in our home), do we really want an overdose of color or themed graphics?

Yay for typography! Average Mom - to the typo-philes, we do see distinct differences. ;o)

I also offer these in my shop (have been for awhile now) - 20 X 30s, in custom colors, and I offer international shipping.

I used 3M's command strips, works like a charm and did not leave a residue when we put up come paper lanterns and took them down after 6 months.

Awesome selections! Like Meg from Olliegraphic, I also like the bibbitty one - reminds me of an old school poster. :o)

I also have French (and other language) alphabet and numbers posters if it's ok to plug them,

I saw Suzy's work in person this past weekend at the Igloo Letterpress (http://iglooletterpress.com/) anniversary bazaar in Worthington, Ohio and loved it! I was so surprised that I had not seen more of her designs around and lo and behold, this pops up on my feed reader! :o)

I like the mix-and-match sets.

And her designs are very chic.

I have been using the ones made from laminated cotton so they wipe clean and resist liquids a little better. Most of the more frequently-used baggies in our household are from Urban Harmonie Designs(http://www.etsy.com/shop/uhreusable) but we have baggies from other etsy sellers too. I think it's great that there are options readily available and although the upfront investment is significant in comparison to the plastic snack bags, you get your money back over time and use no plastic bags.

I pushpin-ed some alphabet flashcards onto a fabric-covered canvas, and also framed them in 4 X 6 frames for both of my daughter's spaces. Here are some photos,

LOL at the backwards poster print. In the seller's defense,

"This print suits nursery or your loved ones room.Here is a great way of helping children to learn about the mirror image reflection and that's physics."

But I agree, maybe another graphic would have been more appropriate for that purpose. :o)

The A B Sea print is also my fave of the collection!

On first pass, I didn't even catch the faces but on second look (plus a glance at the title), the features began to show!

i first saw the clipboard-on-wall idea at the studio tour of ali edwards,

http://www.aliedwards.com/2009/01/around-the-room.html

and purchased some clipboards during back-to-school sale to do the same and i love it! it's such a fuss-free way to display less-standard sized prints and to rotate them around.
