  1. I'm jealous of your wall space. It looks like a great place to put stuff up.

  2. Elizabeth,
    Would you please share, where did you purchase these beautiful posters you have shown on a wall on one of your pictures? I would like to introduce something like that to my baby!
    Thank you

  5. Marta,

    The flashcards are from Abeka. The flower cards come with 74 cards and the insect cards come with 114. Most of the cards are individual insects / flowers (very nicely drawn and clear) and then some of the cards are like these, with the parts of a flower, different root types, metamorphosis, etc. They are very nice and I am very pleased with them, you can get them here:

  6. Ticia,

    Yes I know, it is so nice that when we moved in this house we had very little furniture, making for a lot of empty wall space. Thanks for your comment!

  7. I love your space! You chose such lovely items for the wall. Not your typical ABC cards. Thanks for sharing it.
