featuring Maileg



 
There are a few designers who we simply cannot get enough of, and one of those is Dorthe Mailil and her whimsical designs for the ever successful Danish designhouse, Maileg.
 
Inspired by fairytales and with a wonderfully creative imagination, Maileg have proudced some amazing products, loved by adults and children alike and that are heirlooms in the making.
 
The mice family itmes has to be one of our favourite designs. Yesterday my daughter Matilda wanted me to play with her and her mice family and we had a lovely time taking them for an imaginative walk around the house, making a den for them in my slippers and using the matchbox both as a boat, car and a bed...

And finally, below is a little sneek peak into Dorthe and Erik's home, photographed by Martin Solyst for Bolius. 
Having spent months renovating their home, they are now enjoying their gorgeous space mixing old with new which is so
bang on trend right now!
