Forget the refrigerator, and let your toddler’s artwork don your biggest walls! As featured on Oprah, Little Kids Big Art turns ink, pencil, crayon or finger paintings into masterpieces on canvas. Little Kids Big Art encourages a collaborative process, and specializes in enhancing the new art without touching the original. Picasso said, “at 15 I painted like Valezquez, and it took me 80 years to paint like a child.” We say, don’t wait…get your Picasso now, at a tiny fraction of the price!

personalized stationery

We love these adorable cards found at Penny People Designs...you can personalize the characters by changing the skin tone, hair style, and hair color of each family member.

The name of this adorable company is just as adorable as it’s note cards. Lindsay Stephenson began drawing her penny people (so called because she traced pennies to create their face) in grade school. As she grew up, pennies were no longer needed.‘Personalized stationery has never looked as cute’ as Penny People stationery.
