Marionette Wallpaper by Ferm Living
Cast your mind back and you may remember the Marionette cushions, the result of a collaboration between Ferm Living and Darling Clementine. Those creatures are back, this time ready to liven up your kid's bedroom in the form of this Marionette Wallpaper.
The four creatures – Frank Fox, Elle Elephant, Posy Panda and Aristo Katt – are, as with the cushions, depicted in a retro style and here is shown as a repeated pattern against a turquoise background.
A timeless design for a kid's room, the wallpaper costs £59.95 a roll.

Miniature Bitossi animals from SCP
You may remember these from when they were reissued a few years ago. The Bitossi animals are now back in miniature form, and selling at SCP.
The distinctive blue ceramic creatures were originally designed in the early 50s by Aldo Londi. They've picked ten of the designs and literally shrunk them – they now range from 3cm to 12cm in height. Something of a sense of exclusivity about them too – only a thousand of the sets are being made in total.
The set costs £419, or you can contact the store for the price of individual animals.
