mommy's impulse buy

I love how there is zero guilt when I impulse buy something for Maya, as opposed to for myself. I found this for her yesterday in a great modern/vintage homegoods store in Cambridge, Abodeon. I immediately had visions of her carrying it from room to room as a two year old. The textured fabric is perfect for her now. It's from a line called "Peculiar Pets," made by a woman in North Carolina. She takes vintage and leftover textiles and makes stuffed animals from the fabrics. Since the fabrics aren't mass produced, the animals are usually one of a kind. Cool, huh?
