Discovered via Moccasin, Little Elephant is a world onto itself: a Swedish brand created by designera nd illustrator Camilla Lundsten that introduces a group of characters and stories through books and products for the home.

Brilliant idea from Trampoline. Pick up some semi-ridiculous lamp bases from thrift stores, chuck the faded and outdated shades and replace with those trendy half chrome bulbs or Edison bulbs. Instant upgrade. I must try this pronto!

Every major design blog has a gift guide of their own so I won’t over do it. I’ve just been pulling items that would make me happy, so I am assuming anyone would be happy to receive these too. For the holidays or just because, young and old, boy or girl – you get the picture. All very reasonably priced and super cool. Time is running out.
