Lay Baby Lay

I recently stumbled on a new blog that has quickly become a favorite of mine. Lay Baby Lay is a project by the oh-so-talented Joni, who posts about nursery inspirations and other child-related delights. She has an amazing eye for design, and even though I'm not in any need of a nursery, I just love seeing what she pulls together.

My favorite feature is the nursery moodboards. What fabulous combinations!

Neutral Niceties for a Boy, see original post for source list. 

Macaron Delights, see original post for source list.

 Joni also posts some great free printables and project tutorials.

 Bluebirds and Name Bunting

 And you've got to check out the nursery she put together for her baby girl, Vivi Charles. It's one of my all-time favorites.

Organic Wooden Toys

Love these organic wooden toys and teethers by little alouette...

These would make a great gift for a new baby! Each piece is made from locally sourced hardwoods and crafted by hand in a workshop filled with "cups of tea, laughing children, and disco music." Gorgeous works of art, good for baby, and affordable to boot!

1. Wee Woo Owl (Teething Toy), $15
2. Wood Toy Stacker, $25
3. Free Play Dinosaur Set (Teething Toy), $28
4. Wee Wood Circle (Teething Ring), $10
5. Waldorf Handle Rattle (Teether), $19
