Any design-savvy parent knows that when shopping for kids’ furniture, it has to do double duty. An ottoman that stores toys? A loft bed with a built-in reading nook? All nonnegotiables. So when the artful kids’ furniture brand House of RoRo teamed up with cult-favorite Underwater Weaving Studio, a stylish and practical surprise was bound to bloom.
The New York-based brands, both known for their intentional approach to design, created floral-shaped nesting tables that combine whimsy and functionality, along with a mini rocker with a basket attachment, a toy caddy, and a stool with an optional cut-out center. Launching on May 28, the new collection—dubbed Loves Me, Loves Me Not—includes two flower tables: the “un peu” (a smaller version priced at $570) and the “beaucoup” ($1,150) in a natural-finished birch plywood in the shape of abstract daisies. At the heart of each piece is an Underwater Weaving Studio basket resting in the center, inviting in a tactile charm and usefulness—whether you have little ones or not.
“Childhood nostalgia plays a big role in all of our designs,” interior designer and House of RoRo founder Anne-Sophie Rosseel shares. “I kept returning to the memory of plucking daisy petals while whispering ‘loves me, loves me not’ and making flower necklaces.” The collection was also simply inspired by the meeting of the two brands—children’s furniture and woven baskets—and finding ways to bring them together.
“As a mother and weaver, I’ve seen how kids under the age of seven connect with the magic of baskets,” Underwater Weaving Studio founder Erin Jennie adds. “They’re deeply connected to nature and the handmade—and also love to collect.” But the real delight lies in the versatility of the lineup. Curious on ways to put the tables to use? Rosseel has some ideas for you.
Put It in Any Room
You can transform the larger table in a matter of seconds: it comes with a wooden lid that turns the inset basket into hidden storage, creating a flat surface. “It works beautifully as a coffee table—roomy enough for a bouquet, a sculptural ceramic piece, or even an ice bucket and glasses for an impromptu home bar,” says Rosseel. “During the day, it easily transforms into a play table—just add a few floor cushions for the little ones to gather around.”
Gather Around for a Bite
One unexpected but very creative use? A snack station. Seriously, the designer discovered that the smaller flower table fits a half melon perfectly. “Fill the basket with grapes or drop in a bowl—it creates the cutest and tastiest setup. And let’s be honest, kids love eating anywhere but the dining table,” she says.
Fill It with a Plant
Use the tables to elevate (literally!) the greenery in your home. “The larger table’s basket can hold a medium-sized plant, creating a sculptural, layered look that brings life and nature into any room,” Rosseel shares. “Or style both tables together for a playful, modular arrangement—they’re light, easy to move, and very loveable.”
