I dream of Orca

The Modern Baby Co. whale mobileCute little fishies for your baby's room? So done. Instead, try this very hip, non-cutesy, and eco-conscious mobile that looks as sweet and restful hanging over a crib as it does dangling over a jacuzzi tub. Trust me, I know, because I stole it and hung it over mine. (My boy's room is Godzilla and cars, so it's not that I'm selfish; I'm practical.)

[see the giveaway after the jump!]

 

The little whale mobile by The Modern Baby Co. is laser-cut from birch and comes to you with minimal packaging and about an IKEA-level of assembly required. That means you have to thread the clear wire through three whales and figure out how to tie it up yourself, which isn't bad at all.

I love the natural, minimalistic approach in two-tone wood, and I really love the way they float and twirl with the slightest breeze. If I were pregnant now, I'd start planning a whale-themed nursery and dreaming of whalesong.~Delilah

Sweet... But those aren't Orcas... Sperm whales rather. Here endethnthe nature lesson.

Alison, that is true! And actually Delilah had a line about that in the post but I took it out. It has to do with weirdos who google things about sperm.

Long story.

Heh. -Liz

Yes! My original title was "Baby's Got (Hump)Back". And then I mentioned they were actually Sperm whales. So I had both humping and sperm in the post. And THAT is why we have awesome EDITORS. =) Thanks, Liz!

Appreciate the eco-consciousness of this mobile. Most fitting fora new little one's room. Sweet slumbers!
