I don't know about the bouncers, but IKEA has a cute baby gym. My little guy loved it as a baby (when he would lay under it and bat at the shapes) and he loves it now that he's pulling up and walking (he pushes it around the house).

They have some definitely not hideous other stuff too. (And the bjorn is the cutest baby bouncer/chair I was able to find.)

I stenciled a quote on my kitchen wall not long ago. It was cheaper than ordering vinyl lettering, and only took an evening to do. Here's how I did it: http://www.mybitofearth.net/2009/08/writing-on-the-wall.html

Depending on how modern you want to go, I recently installed a Grundtal towel rail from IKEA. The hooks hold rings and earrings, and my necklaces hang on the bar. I like having everything out where I can see it, and if you really had a ton of jewelry they make them up to 4 feet long.

I recently ordered chairs from here: http://woodfurnituremarket.com/chairs.html

I haven't received mine yet, so I can't comment on the quality, but they have several styles and will even paint them any color you want.
