Design for the Little Ones [interior Design]

We are all about the DIY and saving a buck but fancy designer goods somehow manage to stay in the corner of our eyes. It's hard to avoid really. Eames, Saarinen, Le Corbusier are a few classic furniture designers from back in the day who have made some iconic pieces. Even if you have never heard of them you have most likely seen some of their work around. Well their classic designs have been replicated (and replicated, and replicated) and can come XS. Look at these pint size versions of some classic pieces:
