Sheep Stools
Posted on | January 14, 2009 | 7 Comments
I’m on the fence about these sheep stools. I’ve seen all sorts of ewe type stools showing up in mags and online. These are the cutest of the bunch. But do I actually like them or are they just silly for $650? Who is going to sit on them, grandma? Cute in a kids room I guess. I bet if I gave a kid the choice of a giant purple sparkly bear or a sheep stool they would probably side with the sparkles. Maybe it’s one of those objects that adults like that kids never play with and just sits in the corner collecting dust. I bet ya that thing gets really dusty with all the clumpy hair.
p.s. you have to click on the “ewe type stools” link, you’ll be laughing for the rest of the afternoon.

ah! I clicked the link! ah!
I had a sheep as a kid called Wooly Willy, but he was made out of cotton balls and cardboard. I used to try and sit on him, and it didn't really work out. Maybe these would be great, for a kid who's into sheep. But it was also cool to make Wooly Willy myself…

I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I read the title to your post. The actual subject of the post was NOT the first thing to come to mind.

lol. I hear ya…everytime I wrote the word "stool" in this post I kept thinking are there versions of the word, "stool'? Because I just kept thinking about the latter.

Those ewe stools are hilarious!! And, I agree, scary. I would never subject my child to those. These ones, on the other hand, are hilarious in a non-scary way. I love sheep more than most people, so if it wasn't $650, I would so get one and make everyone who visited my apt. sit on it. And I would use it. So funny.

I saw the ewe stools in a House Beautiful mag in a coffee shop the other day. Everyone turned to look at me when I snarfed my chai. Can you imagine? Esp. a swanky cocktail party (hey, if I could afford $550 stools I'd be having some swanky cocktail parties) and seeing Mr. Stockbroker straddling a ewe….
