Since I didn't give you any Friday links,
I thought I'd share some clicks of awesomeness
to kick off your week. Happy Monday!

Edition Paumes

I am adding this range of amazing family decor books by Japanese publisher Edition Paume to my holiday wish list. I stumbled upon a few of the titles during a recent visit to Kinokuniya bookstore, and I couldn't wait to get home to research more about the series. They are written in Japanese, but feature enough whimsically delectable photos to feast your design-hungry eyes upon for days.

You can order them online directly from the publisher, or by visiting the design boutique Bodie and Fou, or Handmade With Joy's Ebay and Etsy shops.

The Art of the Display

Please forgive the dog-eared upper-left corner!

I've been meaning to post about this great kid's room idea I found in the September 2010 issue of Martha Stewart Living. I love the simple but fresh concept for displaying kid's artwork, and the ease with which the paintings could be rotated frequently simply by changing out what's in the bulldog clips. Genius! Get some behind-the-scenes info on how this room was created, here.

Vintage Kantha Quilts

These gorgeous quilts are made from vintage saris, pieced together and then stitched all over with running stitch. Each one is unique and has different colors and patterns on either side. These are in the hippie-glam bedroom of my dreams! Available from Niki Jones. Via Eat Drink Chic.

Guest Post: Julia from The Boo and The Boy on Rainbows

Note from Leigh: Due to the popularity of the recent posts by my bevy of amazing guest bloggers, I decided to start regularly featuring friends here on Marvelous Kiddo! SO, without further ado, please welcome back Julia from The Boo and The Boy:

Life can be hard sometimes. For my family and I, life has been hard since March of this year. March is when my husband got sick.

My husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor - a grade II benign meningioma. That day everything changed.

My husband had surgery to remove the tumor, 10 days after its discovery. Unfortunately, my husband underwent 37 radiation treatments because the surgery didn't remove everything. September 27 marked his last treatment. YAY!

Life has been unbelievably stressful but we've made it this far. We have two small children (4 and 2) who have helped keep us sane and in positive spirits through all this. We enjoy every day that we have together as a family and we try not to sweat the small stuff because life's just too damn short.

On my blog, I post about my two biggest passions - my family and interior design (mainly kid's rooms). In this post for Leigh, I've written a bit about my family and now I'd like to show you some kid's rooms. I chose a 'rainbow' theme for the photos below since my husband and kids are the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Guest Post: Julia from The Boo and The Boy on Vintage-Inspired Children's Spaces

Nothing says vintage like some splashes of yellow, sheepskin rugs, flowered wallpaper and furniture from grandma's house. These rooms are cozy, creative and fun and are some of my favorite kids' rooms:












P.S.(From Leigh): I just love Julia's blog, The Boo and The Boy. I don't know of another website devoted exclusively to children's spaces, that does such an amazing job of aggregating beautiful decor photos. Julia has a fantastic eye, and always does an inspired job of sourcing images from all over. Warning: reading The Boo and The Boy may result in constantly wanting to redecorate your kid's room!
