Choosing how to decorate above the crib should honestly be part of my next design dilemma series. There are so many options! But when I came across these Peter Rabbit art prints,<\/a><\/em> I knew I had to incorporate them into the room somehow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nursery Art Prints Inspiration<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

I’ll give you a little backstory about why these prints mean something to my husband and me. Last year when we discussed starting a family, we were enjoying our 2 week backpacking trip through the UK<\/a><\/em>! Literally 365 days before our due date this year. Crazy how life changes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peter Rabbit Nursery Art Prints from the Lake District<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Lake District was definitely one of my favorite stops of the two week trip. It is a National Park, complete with lovely historic towns, lakes and preserved nature. In fact, many English poets have called this place home, or pulled inspiration from its beauty. Poet William Wordsworth lived there and referred to the Lake District as \u201cthe loveliest spot that man hath ever found\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to William Wordsworth, Beatrix Potter (the author and illustrator of The World of Peter Rabbit<\/em>) has connections to the area as well. She first visited the district when she was 16 and her father rented Wray Castle on the shores of Lake Windermere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During our trip, we stayed at Randy Pike Bed & Breakfast<\/a><\/em>, which happened to be the old gentleman’s hunting lodge on the Wray Estate. We were able to take an easy walk to Wray Castle where Beatrix Potter spent so many summers. Her influence on the area is impossible to miss. You will find Beatrix Potter and Peter Rabbit memorabilia in every shop and store throughout the towns!<\/p>\n\n\n

Beatrix Potter’s art images from the Tale of Peter Rabbit entered public domain in 2014, which means you can use these freely! Books and their illustrations enter the public domain for free use 70 years after the date the author dies, which essentially means copywrite laws expire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have 12 illustrated prints from the Tale of Peter Rabbit to choose from.<\/a><\/em> I chose my four favorite, which included a mix of animals (including the white cat of course), and colors that worked the best with the wall color (SW Evergreen Fog<\/em>) and rug. <\/p>\n\n\n
