The fact that Oprah Winfrey personally chose SNURK as one of her Favorite Things was a 'big dream' of ours that came true...

In 2017 we (Erik and I) had a tiny stand at the enormous New York NOW fair. Together with two good American friends who wanted to sell SNURK in the USA. Which was an adventure in itself. We put together our own stand, clumsy but creative. The Americans seemed to appreciate it. The “this is so awesome and amazing!” Compliments flew around our ears. However, we thought: don't Americans quickly find something amazing ?

But suddenly we had Oprah Winfrey's team in our booth and they wanted to bring samples to show to Oprah. Apparently Oprah chooses 100 products every year that she then recommends to her O Magazine readership as the perfect gifts for the holidays. Then she walks through a warehouse, where numerous pre-selected products are displayed and then she chooses her favorites herself. And yes, SNURK was among them! She chose our children's bedding from the Dream Big series. And said this about it:

"As they sang in South Pacific, 'If you don't have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?' These cotton duvet covers encourage little ones to dream big." -Oprah

She immediately understood our thoughts behind these bedding prints. Epic right!? We have many more great SNURK stories before going to sleep. Do you want to dream bigger like Oprah? Shop: SNURK children's bedding
