Trompe L'Oeil Pets
Ohdeedoh in Europe - Paris

jacques.jpgSo your little one wants a cat or a dog and you don't, or can't, or whatever, and a stuffed animal surrogate just won't do. Meet Jacques the Jack Russell Terrier. This lifesize trompe l'oeil pet is just one of the lifelike creatures that may help you bide your time...

Christophe Koziel calls his trompe l'oeil creations -- which also include photographs of antique furniture and accessories for the grown-ups -- "trompe l'oeil, revisited." The animal photographs aren't stickers, but mounted onto rigid plastic.

I'm not sure where you would put them, but they're cute.

Cute, but these remind me a little of the cardboard baby Trey gave Charlotte on Sex and The City.
