New: Night Lights, Wall Stickers and Growth Charts

Looking to spruce up your children’s bedrooms for the New Year?  Look no further!  You may remember our post about Oopsy Daisy Art and how much we love their paintings, especially from Utah’s own Winford Sisters.  Now, Oopsie Daisy is proud to carry some fabulous new products from Oopsy Daisy Art that make decorating kids’ room easy and fun.

Oopsy Daisy canvas Peel & Place wall stickers “make a huge impact in your child’s room in minutes with our interactive Peel & Place canvas wall stickers. They are fun to look at and fun to PLAY with! To make them even better, we have included a full alphabet and set of numbers with each Peel & Place.  This  allows you or your child to customize the art with your childs name and write fun messages.  These oversized canvas wall decals have the same great clarity, depth and color resolution as our stretched wall art. They are easy to clean, durable and repositionable“ (quoted from OopsyDaisy.com; emphasis added).

Oopsy Daisy growth charts are “created on the same artists canvas as (their} stretched wall art. Grommets placed in the four corners make them easy to hang. We provide color coordinated decorative covers that easily fit over the screw or nail you choose. This product creates a great childhood keepsake, and rolls up easily for safe storage. The growth chart can be wiped clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and should it wrinkle, the backside may be ironed on a low setting with light steam. A permanent marker (not included) is a great way to mark dates or ages on the chart” (quoted from OopsyDaisy.com).

Oopsy Daisy night lights are the most unique we’ve ever seen!  “Each canvas night light is a mini work of art stretched over wood frames, just like our kid’s wall art. These come in an adorable gift box that allows you to wish sweet dreams to your favorite child. The mini canvas is mounted through the wood to the night light base. A 5 watt bulb (included) and on/off switch, ensures soft light when you want it. When the night light is no longer needed, we suggest repurposing the night light by unscrewing the base and placing the art piece on a shelf!” (quoted from OopsyDaisy.com).

Here at Oopsie Daisy, we carry a wide selection of Oopsy Daisy Peel & Place wall stickers, growth charts and night lights.  One of the great things about all of these art pieces is that you can buy them by theme (i.e. princess, pirate, etc.).  We’d love to show you more fabulous Oopsy Daisy Art pieces today!  Come on in soon (11259 Kestrel Rise Road South Jordan, UT, 84095)!

Oopsy Daisy Art

Oopsie Daisy the boutique + Oopsy Daisy Art = a perfect match!  When our owner, Tiffany, saw the Winborg sisters’ collection within Oopsy Daisy Art, it was love at first sight.  Now Oopsie Daisy proudly carries Winborg sisters Oopsy Daisy Art.

The fact that the Winborg sisters are Utah-natives makes their art even more endearing to Oopsie Daisy!

Mendy Winborg Reese and Megan Winborg Gerrard grew up in Utah.  Their interest in art began at a very young age.  As early as they can remember, they spent many hours drawing and painting alongside their father, an accomplished artist.  Mendy studied and graduated at Utah State University with a Bachelor of Fine Art and a K-12 teaching certificate.  She taught art in the public schools until her and her husband started a family.  She enjoys painting landscapes and interiors, as well as, art for children.  Megan graduated in Elementary Education from USU in Logan, Utah.  She spends many hours volunteering at her children’s charter school teaching art and working on the art committee.  Children’s literature and artwork have always been an inspiration to her.  Both sisters are stay-at-home moms who enjoy creating artwork, as well as memories with their children.

Take a peek at some of our favorite pieces from the Winborg sisters Oopsy Daisy Art collection:

Oopsy daisy, Fine Art For Kids, began out of a desire to provide art for children that would engage and inspire… Part of their dedication to children and to their community of artists is to foster learning. To this end, many of their canvases are educational and each piece of wall art includes the artist’s biography.

At Oopsy daisy it is believed that art stimulates and helps develop a child’s mind, spirit and health. Parent conceived and owned, Oopsy daisy donates a portion of annual sales to charities that directly assist children and that are compatible with the company’s goals for improving kids’ lives. Every year, Oopsy daisy gives back to non-profits such as The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric Aids Foundation, K.I.D.S and ZERO TO THREE.

Overall, the company mission is to bring joy and color to children’s spaces, either through artful product or through corporate donation.

Come on in to Oopsie Daisy to see these creative stretched-canvas pieces of art!  Your sense of wonder and imagination will soar!
