We Covet Marimekko For Kids

Miniunikko_muki_ja_lautassetti_big You'll feel a lot less guilty stocking up on cheap Marimekko for yourself at H&M if you draw your kids into your obsession with retro Finnish design. Being a pretentious hipster isn't just for grown-ups anymore: you can set the kiddie table with one of these Marimekko porcelain dish sets - you'll be wearing a Marimekko-print housedress, of course - and feel perfectly secure in the knowledge that you are raising children with perfectly appropriate superiority complexes.

Until the Marimekko plate gets chipped after being bashed by a grape-juice stained Marimekko cup, at which point you'll probably just wish that you'd saved these for yourself and let the little monsters use the cheap plastic Dora ware instead.

Marimekko tableware for kids, about $55.00 per set @ ModernKid
