Sheehey’s path to becoming a professional artist was as organic and heartfelt as her paintings. Originally an elementary school teacher, Riley began painting as a personal creative outlet, inspired by her love of vintage storybooks, florals and creating emotional scenes. What began as evenings spent experimenting with watercolors soon blossomed into a full-time artistic career, as her whimsical and nostalgic style resonated with parents, collectors, and brands alike. Today, her work is recognized for its ability to transport viewers into a world that feels both familiar and fantastical, evoking treasured memories while sparking new ones. Riley Sheehey’s designs feel like they are lifted from the pages of a watercolor storybook, created to be treasured for generations.
“Pottery Barn Kids is pleased to collaborate with renowned artist Riley Sheehey,” said Jennifer Kellor, President, Pottery Barn Kids. “Our designs combine Sheehey’s storybook-inspired artistry with Pottery Barn Kids’ craftsmanship for a beautiful holiday collection for baby and kids.”
“As an artist and a mom, I have loved working with Pottery Barn Kids to create pieces that feel both magical and meaningful,” said Riley Sheehey. “This partnership has been such a dream, and I’m thrilled to share a collection that families can weave into their own holiday traditions and memories.”
The Riley Sheehey for Pottery Barn Kids collection includes nursery and holiday décor highlighting Sheehey’s distinctive watercolor artistry. A tree skirt and coordinating stockings feature festive woodland animals and storybook-inspired scenes, perfectly tailored for cozy holiday decorating. Detailed bedding and textiles - from crib sheets to quilted comforters - bring Sheehey’s delicate brushwork into the nursery, with playful, nostalgic prints. Decorative throw pillows, garlands, and keepsake ornaments extend the artwork throughout the home, while timeless holiday tabletop pieces add charm to family gatherings.
Sheehey has previously collaborated with major fashion brands. This marks her first-ever home furnishings collaboration, one that blends artful design with Pottery Barn Kids’ heritage craftsmanship.
