J. Mendicino Vases

by babysugar 2

I rarely find decorating accents that fit my taste and my child's room, but San Francisco artist J. Mendicino crafts ceramic vases adorned with sweet animal faces. Perfect for a tot with a bird themed nursery, the pigeon vase ($45) adds flair to a lil one's lair, especially with a few bright blossoms sprouting from his head.

If pigeons aren't your style, check out the other creatures featured — ducks, snails, bunnies or speaking sparrows. Unlike the diaper caddy hanging off the changing table, you won't have to toss these delicate pieces of art out when baby grows up.
