The Intersection of Design & Motherhood
By Koseli.
This Periodic Table of Childhood would add the perfect scientific twist to any child’s room. Similar to the periodic table that decorated every chemistry class of our youth, this one is divided into colored sections and celebrates all the elements of a happy childhood.
In red is what is most important — love and happiness — and in light violet are wishes for every family, from joy to bliss to delight.

My name is Gabrielle Blair. I'm a designer and mother of six. We currently live in a farmhouse in the French countryside. I post on where design and motherhood intersect.

In nerd love with this.
That is the perfect way to describe how I feel about this print, too, Kate. I am so in nerd love.
Aw! This poster is perfect!
This is totally going on my Christmas wish list. So awesome!
It’s never too early to start that Christmas list! It’s going on mine too.
I love this so much!
Oh my gosh, this is toooo cute!
This just made my day…..hello I am in love!
Thanks, Christina! So happy we’re all in love. :)
This is just super sweet! Two years ago we had a science birthday party for my son and we made a “Periodic Table of Harris” and it was all about him! It was so fun and it still hangs in his room!
I just found your blog… so inspiring! I love this poster!
I love that this could work with many color schemes, too – I went kind of ut there with a mossy green in my little man’s room and it has been so fun finding wall art that adds color pops.
I love this! What a fun thing to hang in a family room. Or use as an inspiration point for a bedroom.
