Teddylux Recycled Cashmere Stuffed Animals by Karen Day
Rather than toss moth-eaten or otherwise less-than-pristine cashmere, donate it to Teddylux, who will repurpose your unwanted cashmere into darling stuffed animals.
Designer Brooke Serson Cernonok handcrafts each unique animal in her Atlanta studio and will even custom make one for you with cashmere you send to her, making for terrific personal gifts.
The menagerie of teddylux animals ranges from $50-60 and can be purchased online. Each one arrives in a gift box with a story of its recycled roots and certificate of authenticity.

Tiny Love is changing that though, by enhancing design classics like the mobile and play mat with imaginative and constructive concepts that engage and challenge a baby during their critical first year.
