About Me

Hi, My name is Irene Owens. My greatest passion in life is Art. I love drawing portraits, painting whimsical pictures and illustrating for children. I also collect children's books and hope to one day get one of my own picture books published. I have a shop on Etsy where I sell my prints, hand painted pendants and mirrors. In this blog you will find artists that inspire me, brilliant handmade creations and my own art. I hope you enjoy my posts.

Nursery Decor - ideas to brighten up your Nursery

As a mum to a nine month old boy, I am always trying to think of ways to stimulate him, make him laugh and assist with his learning.

Sleeping alone can be a scary thing for a baby so it is important to make your nursery a fun and happy place to be. I wanted to share my nursery decor ideas with you and hope you will find them inspiring. All items are handmade and are available on Etsy.


I love this dreamy crib mobile, such pretty soft colors, shapes and textures. Available from LoveFeltXoXo at $85.00



This is one of my very own hand painted nursery mirrors  'Story Time', which is available from TinyRed at around $55.00



This whimsical birdhouse wall lamp would make a fantastic addition to any nursery. Sold here moderntreetopbaby at $110.00



A nice sturdy book shelf is a must! The cute owls make this shelf extra special. Available from MapleShadeKids at $69.00




I love this print, it's so simple, delicate and pretty. Sold here DesignByMaya at $17.00



And of course, you've got to have cute toys! I simply adore this little bunny. Sold here TextilePlatypus at $18.00
