Donna Wilson Creatures

Donna-Wilson-creatures.jpgWe keep thinking we should be tired of the kooky critter trend in kids' toys... but we're not. These new imports from British designer Donna Wilson would look right at home alongside our collection of Ugly Dolls and random handmade weirdos.

Wilson's knitted creatures "are inspired by the everyday oddities and deformities of life. She likes to think of each of them as a character in her very own wonderland -- a place where you could stretch out on a sea of pom-poms, have a picnic with a poodle, or get grumpy with a ginger man." See some of our favorites below the jump...

 
 

With twenty-five toys in this collection, it's easy to be charmed by more than one. Our picks:

Clockwise from top left: Oscar Dog, Bunny Blue and Baby Blue, Stick the Snail, Rudi Raccoon, and Ginge Cat.

Prices range from $48 to $138 at Design Public
