But beware: You’re going to want all of these prints, rugs and pillows. Get the “we bought a zoo” jokes ready now.


1. Cool Cows: A cow print rug in a nursery is the exact detail we never knew we were missing. We bet baby’s first word will be “Moo,” too! (via Apartment Therapy)

2. Masters of Mache ($99-199): Show off all of your favorite animals, big and small, in the cutest way possible… as paper mache heads on your wall!

3. Pup Pop: Add just a pop of animal through your pillows! This 101 Dalmations throw is just the right amount of bold and beautiful. Snag one just like it from Etsy for $40 or make the look your own. (via The Pursuit of Style)

4. Prints on Prints ($105): Perfect for a kid’s room or a laid back living room, these animals are one-of-a-kind. Put all your favorite animals on one wall for a constant source of happiness.

5. Chair Chic: There’s something really romantic about dalmatian spots paired with pink hues — and obviously this chair just proves our point. (via Style Me Pretty)

6. Deer in the Headlights: Oh dear, those deer are quite chic. Plaster creatures are a fabulous addition to an eclectic home. (via Apartment Therapy)

7. Zebra Love ($10): There’s no easier or better way to jazz up a boring white wall than with some classic black and white stripes.

8. Leopard Walls ($40): An accent wall, whether colored or patterned, can add a ton of character to any room. Snag this leopard print stencil and create a spotted wall of any color on your own.

9. Zebra Crazy: Who knew zebra print went so well with graphic white and yellow patterns in a nursery? Lovin’ this new decor idea! (via Altico Sin Ascensor)

10. Gorgeous Stems ($22): This watercolor giraffe print is going to make us bust out the H2O paints this weekend.
