cool recyclable dollhouses

i love love love these cool flatpack dollhouses from swedish company our children’s gorilla. they’re made of recyclable cardboard and mdf, and are printed on three sides with old-timey architectural graphics.

the insides of the houses are a blank canvas, so the only limits to the interiors of the rooms is your imagination. fun!

choose firehouse or brownstone for $74 each and see other imaginative things right here.

marmalade wallflower scratching post

when i think of cat scratching posts, i visualize stumpy pieces of wood covered in bad carpeting in unfortunate colors mr. lucky would never approve of. not so with this wallflower scratching post from marmalade pet care. it comes in three happy colors and can be mounted on a wall to create a kind of interactive pet sculpture. it’s made of recycled corrugated cardboard and is 34″ x 3 1/2″ x 5″.

this is from the company that brought us the sweet lounge - a very high design for cat beds (in my humble opinion).

i know someone at home who would plotz if they were in his cat stocking this christmas.

purchase it all at muttropolis.

supremely fun mobiles from the flensteds

ah, for a seafaring life in scandinavia… well, maybe not. but these danish mobiles might help you visualize it.

flensted mobiles is a small, multi-generational family company that’s been making modern mobiles since 1954. hopefully they will make them for another 50 years.
