With baby number four (my fourth boy) on the way, I've got nursery on the brain. I am constantly on the lookout for ways to personalize my newest little man's space. Of course, even with boys, I can't help but "ooh" and "ahh" over some of the more girly prints, so I've thrown in a few of those, too.

This print makes me laugh — what's better to look at all the time than something that makes you laugh? It's perfect for my dudes.
What a sweet picture! It's just so unique. I love the unusual crackle finish and the girl's little heart-shaped lips.
The vibrant colors and swirling patterns in this picture are mesmerizing. Plus, who doesn't love cute little houses?
This is just so clean and contemporary looking, even with the traditional alphabet theme. I love that the artist can do customized colors, so this piece can match perfectly with whatever scheme you've got going on.
This little owl is adorable! It's a fun and whimsical print, and it's fully customizable with color and your child's name to boot.
This picture has a cool, retro-hipster vibe that's softened by the fluffy white clouds against the blue sky. I dig the peaceful feeling it invokes, and I'm pretty sure a baby would, too.
This isn't just one picture; it's a set of eight, and it's just so awesome. I love the color scheme, and the theme is joyful and unexpected for a nursery.
This is gorgeous. I can't imagine a prettier theme or color scheme for a little girl's nursery.
Simple and sweet, this adorable little bunny catching a falling star would be perfect for either gender.
This little red car is just so cute. It's a nice, cheery, non-fussy piece of art. Plus, I'm a sucker for anything that can be personalized. My boys would love this.
The vintage feel makes this piece a standout, and I adore the color combination.
I totally love this piece for two reasons. First, I'm a word nerd, and dictionaries make me salivate. Second, you can customize it with whatever adjectives and nicknames you want, taking the personalization way beyond the name.
The bright, bold swirls of color make for such an interesting statement. Plus, they're not so babyish that they'd look out of place once the nursery isn't a nursery anymore.
This isn't your typical wall art, and that's what I love about it. A vintage songbook combined with the modern lines of the frame make this an interesting conversation piece.
I love the colors, the flowers and that cute little bird nestled right in the fork of the tree! This picture would add such a spring-like feel to a room.
I wouldn't normally think of monsters as a nursery theme, but this monster is just so stinkin' friendly and cute.
As the mom of three boys (and another on the way), these cars are a staple in my house. Maybe if this cool and colorful print were hanging on my wall, I could tell people that the cars strewn across the carpet were just there to accent the art.
This is another rather atypical — or at least, unexpected — piece of art for a nursery. I love its retro look and the contrast of the bright blocks against the weathered wood.
With so many colors in this cute and cozy farm scene, you could tie it into just about any color scheme. And those sheep are adorable!
This picture is so peaceful and serene. From the sleeping birdies to the way the moon and stars seem almost illuminated against the background, this is something I'd love to have hanging on the wall.
