Animal Espresso Pots For A Cheerful Cuppa


There are fleeting moments in my life when I believe I'm a fully-fledged grown up. These moments usually involve tax returns, parking and speeding fines, mortgage statements, and my friends getting divorced (or - *gasp* - remarrying). So, like, all REALLY boring stuff. The rest of the time, thankfully, I am basically a 7-year-old trapped in a 33-year-old's body. No more so than when I saw these animal espresso pots by Mario Mazzanti on Fab. This is the noise I made:

Aaagggghhhhnnnnnnyyyyyeeeeeewwwwwweeep! 

They're £28 each, reduced from £54.50 (I know. Mental). I must own one NOW. This pup is a cutie, and no mistake - perfect for helping you brew up a delicious cappupccino. But... BUT:


THERE'S A PIG! Oink oink. Hamericano, anyone?


Being a right-minded person, I know that cats trump all the other animals, so this is the espresso pot for me. This ginger fellow will help you on your quest for a morning miaowcchiato.

If you're as childish as me, and you don't mind your stove-top turning into a pet shop/petting zoo, you've got two days until this sale ends. Happy coffee drinking!

  1. Oh god. Hopping onto that link led to me discovering pizza scissors. I had no idea such a thing existed! Brilliance!

    You should be ashamed :P

    But I do want one now even though I don't actually drink coffee, it would look nice on the counter.

    1. Ha ha! Not guilty - that one was someone else's work!

  3. Are you sure that was the designer? I saw these on fab but didn't take my chance when I should and I've been looking for them for ages!
    Mario Mazzanti takes me straight to books on Amazon and it was only by chance that I got to your blog *sigh*
