I love the pop art look of these bright blue labrador bookends from Pottery Barn Teen. (I am the girl with a bright yellow gnome in my garden.)
But $49! Please.
These would be such an easy DIY. A few scrap blocks of wood, some toy animals and some glossy spray paint would be all you would need to make it work. I think if you were using plastic animals it would be important to prime it or use a paint for plastic, so it doesn’t flake right off.
Hmmm, need to keep a look out for some pigs that would be the right size to do this for my house. What animal would you want on bookends in your house?

Cats. 🙂
Silvia – How sleek would cats done in high gloss black look?! Fabulous!
Penguins, owls, cuttlefish. Some of my favorite animals are a bit hard to acquire!
