turtle table


spotted on cribcandy. i don't know how i missed this one before. turtle table by hella jongerius who is an industrial designer who does some very interesting work. not sure how i feel about the bowl...or the table (under the turtle). but i like the layers.

turtle rider


spotted on a search for something else --as usual. i've never seen one of these before and i don't know why they made it or what this kid is up to, but it's super cute. and apparently it's for sale on etsy.
update--it's obviously a fisher price little people little person and riding a turtle.

turtle tea pot


spotted on cribcandy. it's called the turtle tea kettle. i particularly like the glass infuser. doesn't look all that turtle-like to me but i guess (the designer) andrew zheng thinks it does.

turtle-y fresh!



spotted in Big Lots! it's an air freshener for those who want their car to smell like a turtle. apparently turtles smell like ocean surf. i wasn't brave enough to take a whiff myself. so i'll have to take their word on it.
