Kidsonroof: Totem Pop Out Cards



I featured Kidsonroof totem collection a while ago here. I am excited to have stumbled across their paper craft Totem pop out cards that are delivered to you flat as a card allowing you to turn them into an owl, a peacock, a swan, a stork and more with a little assembly.

P.S.:  Last day to enter the giveaway to win a quilt cover set and an owl cushion. Enter your name here.

New Products by Jonathan Adler




Jonathan Adler's new sunglasses case range is decorated with owl, anchor, seahorse and horse designs in needlepoint and velvet lining for extra padding to keep your glasses safe. You can see the ones featured above and more quirky designs on their website here.





Their signature "Carnaby Greek Key" mugs come in four animal prints - owl, giraffe, snake and zebra with bright backdrop. I love the geometric pattern of triangles on the owl and snake. Do you have a favorite?
