I love fun furniture for kids. Especially whimsical pieces like these from My Little Big Chair. The Little Miss Muffet Tuffet featured below is loaded with details, down to the bug print on the lining beneath the ruffles. I’m not sure if it is the ideal place for your little miss to sit and eat her curds and whey*, but it’s a perfect perch to read, to brush her hair (vanity stool?), to put on her shoes, etc
Tuffets are not just a chick thing, incidentally. There are tuffet options for boys in My Little Big Chair’s shop. I like this drum themed tuffet. Perfect for him to sit on, or bang out a tune on. You could say this piece is easy on the ears and the tush.
* Side Note: Has anyone ever deciphered exactly what curds and whey are? Because I am still wondering. It doesn’t sound all that appetizing. Maybe that is the real reason Little Miss Muffet ran away.

The librarian in me just had to answer the curds and whey question! Curds and Whey are cottage cheese. Check out this blog post for more details: http://indianapublicmedia.org/amomentofscience/mi…
The little miss muffet tuffet is adorable!!
Ohmygosh! I suddenly need a floral tuffet for my sewing studio! I'm not too sure about cottage cheese but I'd sure like to eat my morning blueberry porridge on one :)

I bought this exact tuffet from Melanie at Little Big Chair and I have to say it truly is a work of art. It is one of my MOST favorite things in the world. I will treasure it for years to come.
