The 'Clean Dreams' kitchen sponge holders from OTOTO Design are functional products that feature a humorous design.
The plastic devices are built in the shape of miniature beds -- complete with pillows, which holds wet sponges above countertops to efficiently dry while doubling as a unique and decorative home accessory. The sponge holders measure approximately four inches long by three inches tall and can easily fit most sponges and are dishwasher safe.
In addition to the Cleaning Dreams sponge holders, the company has released a number of other whimsical products like a zippered jar opener, a tea infuser that's shaped like a tiny Loch Ness Monster, a basting brush and pump that looks like a large yellow highlighter and much more.
