Stumbled upon these on the HGTV Design Happens blog and couldn’t get them out of my head – retro wooden blocks now even better with the coolest designs. Uncle Goose makes hand-manufactured classic wood alphabet and design blocks. These are not your everyday ABC wooden blocks AND they are not just for kids anymore – These are cool! As I sifted through the site I loved them more and more especially when I ran into their Christmas blocks – being that I am a Christmas NuT.

Even better than the Christmas blocks they have beautiful ABC and mathematical blocks in braille as well as foreign language and really cool specialty blocks for home design!

These are on the list as soon as I know they won’t be destroyed by my children. Also, I think they would make a great hostess gift! All images via Uncle Goose.
