Designer Cath Young says her label Chunky Chooky is dedicated to โ€œcool things for small people,โ€ but Iโ€™d argue you donโ€™t have to be particularly small to relish her adorable softiesโ€“creatures, rattles, and so-called wabbits fashioned from vintage and cast-off fabric scraps.

Each one is cuter than the last, and theyโ€™re all surprisingly affordable for hand-made, one-of-a-kind creations.

If all of that (and the floppy carrots each of her wabbits carryโ€“those slay me) isnโ€™t enough to win you over, consider this: In addition to making these guys from recycled and organic materials, Young is also active with Kiva.org to support microlending in developing countries. I mean, she had me at the carrot, but I just thought you might want to know. -Mir
