Everyone needs a good door stop now and again, but who likes those ugly brown wedges that you kick under the door way? Rather than find something else to to shove under the doorway, and possibly ruin, take a look at some humorous modern door stops. Here is a slide show for some door stops that are sure to please you and everyone who is passing by.
Appartment Therapy did a post about these doorstops here is what they have to say about them:
• It looks a teeny bit big to me, but the Last Stop airplane door stop from Fred & Friends certainly has humor on its side.
• A super-subtle improvement on the classic wooden wedge, I can see thisAshwood door stop in red, from House by John Lewis, working in a child’s room or kitchen.
• My favorite might just be the beautiful Ooob bookend and door stop from Headsprung. I like the multi-functionality of the piece, and the fact that the silicone won’t harm wooden floors (or doors).
• This brightly-colored leaf door stop from the MoMA Store is pretty fun, and I like it for a back door or mudroom.
• Talk about glam- this gold bar door stop by Eno, from Made in Design, is another favourite of mine.
• James the Doorman from black + blum will hold open your door all day without getting tired.
• Like almost everything from Anthropologie, this gold-beaked door stop is charming, with a hand-crafted feel.
• The Compact Cassette door wedge from Not on the High Street is another tongue-in-cheek option.
• A little different from the traditional stop, the Flexy from Lee Valley is a twisted piece of plastic which will keep a door open just a smudge- enough for airflow or to protect little fingers.
• Also from Lee Valley, the Stoppy protects doors and floors with its silicone-covered S-shape.
