Camp Wandawega & Nod – Behind the Collaboration

At Camp Wandawega, we strive to create a magical place that will be the backdrop for amazing sun-soaked memories. Likewise, Land of Nod has been helping families create magical places in their own homes: intimate, thoughtful environments where imaginations and creativity soar with wild abandon. Together, we were able to take the magic of Camp Wandawega, and enable The Land of Nod fans to bring it into their homes. Our partnership with The Land of Nod is literally a dream – and a place- come true. We are kindred spirits in all the best ways: geeking out on the details, the storytelling behind every little thing, and the value of making memories that last.

The designers at The Land of Nod truly appreciated all the little details at Camp, from tiny rustic cottages, to our time-worn canoes, to salvaged tents & teepees, to Charlie’s favorite overstuffed lounge chair, to a magical treehouse and even our first-born child (mutt) Frankie. Not only did these become the inspiration for the collaboration, they also became the literal subject matter of it. As the design process unfolded, it was a labor of love for both of us to stay true to the original details of the camp, while adding even more whimsy, magic and playfulness to the details in ways that only Land of Nod knows how.
