In a world where everything trendy is handmade, personalised or monogrammed, it turns out there might still be such a thing as too bespoke.  Atlanta-based woodworker Garrick Andrus was commissioned by a pair of very creative expectant parents to create this towering hand-carved tentacled 'Eldritch' crib. Both side panels are intricately carved, while the tentacle posts stretch upwards towards the ceiling, casting some very creepy shadows on the walls. 2 The new dad, Imgur user Rentdownstairs who shared pictures of the finished piece on the site, revealed: "My wife and I wanted to get a custom crib to pass down as an heirloom to our children." 1 While there's no denying the woodwork and craftsmanship is magnificent, the reaction online has been a mixture of awe and sheer horror. Ravadin said: "If I could get this, my husband might be up for five-six more kids." while another user added: "Dat kid gona have nightmares." What do you think of the 'Eldritch' cot?
