I can’t believe I’m getting so excited about a boat… yes a boat! But when you see these boats you’ll know exactly why. They’re truly beautiful toys that have been made with such precision and attention to detail. These wooden toy boats are actually ships (I just like the word boat!) that are scaled down versions of real ships. They’re the creation of a design consultancy called Postler Ferguson made for a small toy company called Papa Foxtrot. I love the soft blue colour, I love that you put them together yourself and best of all I just love how stunning they look. I first came across them at Flora & Henri which is a lovely kids store based in Seattle. There’s a lot more to be said about Flora & Henri but I’ll save that for another day. For today, I just want to stare at these utterly beautiful toys. You can check them out and buy at Papa Foxtrot.
