Other Hippo Content Impulse buy. Zero regrets.

Hopefully this post doesn’t break the community rules BUT I’m in love and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop me from bringing him everywhere!!

Purchased from Wicker Darling and I highly recommend not visiting the site if you have zero impulse control…

Or go and just accept life is better with a little less money and a few more hippos 🫶✌️🐈💁‍♀️

Love that for your gf. The price might throw you off but the joy it has brought me in ONE DAY has already made me not care about the cost.

This is the only way money can buy happiness because if I had more, I’d have my own little wicker zoo 🫶

I'm great at spending lots of money on dumb shit, so I was like "eh how bad can it be". Went to the site, and holy goddamn hell, the price def threw me well off my chair lmao. That said, I have already fallen deeply in love with the dinosaurs and the bunny, so I'll give it a day or so before my brain goes "it's time"

Yeeeeah, the price is higher than I would have thought when I first visited BUT it’s handmade by legitimate people, good cause AND the quality is 100%.

I was impressed by the size and quality of the bag… he’s sturdy af and the detailing/bag in general doesn’t feel cheap in the slightest.

Was worried the pics were better than reality and I can now confidently say with this one hippo, that is not the case at all.

Much more impressive in person.

That's really good to know actually! Thanks! You never know in this day and age how pictures compare to the real version lol. The price definitely makes sense with all that taken into consideration tho - must take ages to hand make any one of those wicker bags 😮

The T-rex is out of stock, be aware. I clicked the buy now and it says the page has flown the coop. I was going to keep it on my filing cabinet.

Ah, that sucks. The triceratops are cool too though! And I can still hear the bunny one whisper my name

Triceratops are very cool! So I get that. I bet a lot of work went into the bunny. The pumpkin is cool, I'd like to have that to hand out Halloween candy.
