Cool stuff for babies


This is the Thilde Pillow, designed by Swedish Pia Eriksson. It has a cool story:

When my daughter Thilde was born, I was given some useful advice form other mothers "whatever you do, don't cut off the laundry labels on your daughter’s cuddly toys".

When Thilde got her first cuddly toy, the first thing that brought her attention was... yes you guessed it... the laundry label. My daughter sucked, bit, and carefully studied these magical labels, and that was when the idea of "The Thilde Pillow" was born.
Isn't that great?! It's things like this I absolutely love. Because it's pretty, but especially because I like when people re-think everyday objects or re-think everyday life and use it to create something that is useful, interesting and fun. Simple ideas make life better.
