I sent Emily and email because I was dissapointed not to have seen any "wall art" (besides murals) in this Baby collection. There are so many artists on Etsy who do "nursery wall art" that would have been perfect for the Nursery Decor section. See our shop for example. But, there are definitely some cute things here!

July 1, 2009 at 1:12 p.m. babychickdesigns

See our Barnyard Babies Wall art collection for nurseries in our shop. http://www.babychickdesigns.etsy.com
