Whoever said you were too old for toys was lying. Or clearly had not yet seen the enchanting little critters on offer from Jellibat —a Melbourne-based designer and toy-maker specialising in all things cute and cuddly. And no, these ain't for kiddies. They're just too special.
Handmade to perfection with felt, buttons, and deliciously-unique stitching, you can choose from charming two-faced lions, floppy pink octopuses, velveteen rabbits, and the cutest Frankenstein you're ever likely to meet. There's even Miss Coco, the jelli-burlesque dancer, complete with frilly knickers and nipple tassels and her own posse of burlesque friends.
Still not convinced? There is also t-shirts and a range of sickly-sweet felt badges available.
