Pottery Barn Kids and the World of Eric Carle are bringing one of my favorite children’s storybooks to life and I couldn’t be happier to share this with you before it even hits the stores!
The entire PB Kids collection of The Very Hungry Caterpillar will include nursery bedding, toddler bedding, wall art, night lights, table top pieces, backpacks, tote bags, lunch sacks, and a plethora of adorable bathroom accessories but today I want to talk about the …
Artful Playroom Collection
Just look at all this great use of space and color! Designed to be something moms would love as much as their kids, I am here to tell you they have done just that. I am in l-o-v-e!
I’m also in love with this space for all of its great ideas, just take a look at that 1 -artwork mobile! And the 2 – colored pencil wall storage, art & storage all in one, yay!. I have been trying to figure out a way to do this ever since Carol Hannah introduced me to the idea. You know I am digging the 3 – color wheel and all the 4 – great storage has me giddy. I can not wait to try and recreate the round clear plastic tubs using bulk snack food containers.
The entire line centers around the theme of playful learning with hopes of inspiring an appreciation of not just art, but also nature. The Very Hungry Caterpillar is the perfect line to do this because the whole story is made with colorful collages and focuses on the life cycle of a butterfly. The learning potential with these pieces are endless and I am so pleased at how engaging they are.
All of these pieces in this new collection are great, but the sleeping bags and bed sheets are my personal favorites. You get a glimpse of the sheets in the middle pillowcase, aren’t they wonderful! I love all the bold use of color in this line and all the design possibilities that comes with.
Available at Pottery Barn Kids online July 21st, in stores and in catalog on July 26th
The whole idea leaves me hungry! Think we’ll read one of our favorite stories and then whip up some fruit salad.

Peel, pare, seed, hull and section each fruit. Cut into bite-sized pieces. Then put them all together in a big bowl and chill. Garnish each serving with a sprig of mint. Serve to a small group of friends, after reading a good book.

Homeschool Room porn. I’m drooling. I can’t believe I used “homeschool” and “porn” in the same sentence.
Ba ha ha, Sarah I can’t believe you did either but you are so right. When they showed me my choice of images to share I knew right away THIS was the one for me.
Have I told you lately how happy it makes me when you stop by? Love getting to know you!
