Hay Pinnochio Rug


OMG!

I don't often use txt-message style abbreviated exclamations like this but sometimes only 'OMG!' seems adequate to describe my excitement!

How amazing are these hand-felted Pinnochio rugs by Danish design house Hay? Seriously fabulous. I wish I was brave enough to have one of these babies in my own home. And actually, the pricetag of 4,999 Danish kroners equates to around AU$1200, which isn't too bad really. Not for a loungeroom covered in multicoloured felt pom poms.

I do worry about the dust though. Imagine vacuuming one of these! Jeepers.

Anyway. Love it.

    Those rugs look good enough to eat! Like felt smarties. They'd make a great addition to any home.

    Completely agree. And not only are the colours sublime but I can imagine that my little baby boy would spend HOURS running his fingers over the texture. Worth every penny, I reckon!

    I agree with Lee - good enough to eat! But as a mum, my first thought is for all the sparkly beads and tiny bits of toys that would find their way in between the balls.
