This might be my favorite giveaway title yet. Is it a band name? A Pixar film? Neither — it’s simply the two options SIX winners will choose from thanks to Cardboard Safari. Cardboard Safari makes distinctive animal trophies made entirely from intersecting, laser-cut cardboard pieces. If you’ve ever wanted a big moose head without the guilt of a real trophy, these make a playful, humane alternative.
Cardboard Safari emphasizes sustainability: their cardboard is recycled, non-toxic, and produced locally. They’re based in Charlottesville, VA, and we’ve spotted their quirky designs around town (our friend Noah even helped design some skull-themed pieces). We figured it was the perfect time to team up with them for a giveaway.
As the title says, winners will choose between two of Cardboard Safari’s newer offerings: the Full-Body Rhino or the Astro Rocket (pictured above). Each item is available in three sizes and in brown or white cardboard — and they’re paintable if you prefer a custom color. They ship flat and assemble easily, like a satisfying puzzle.
We even put together a small white rhino ourselves and filmed the process. If you’re curious how assembly goes, watch the short video below. It took about 15 minutes total (not counting an impromptu bathroom break for a certain four-legged family member).
