    Well, that’s Christmas for my tween sorted.

    Pottery Barn Teen (yes, it’s a thing) just dropped a Super Mario collab so you can adorn your kid’s bedroom (😉) with various decor inspired by the mushroom-powered Italian. You know, in case repeated viewings of the movie and endless hours playing Wonder weren’t enough.

    The Super Mushroom Bean Bag Chair and Question Block Alarm Clock look really sweet, but the prices are tough to swallow: $359 for a bean bag ... Where are my gold coins??
