Dogs and cats love to sleep in their masters’ laps, so why not create lap-shaped pet bed? Laps of Luxury pet beds are jeans and pants that have been repurposed into comfortable sleeping spots for cats and dogs.
The beds are created by Xan Rubey, who is also the founder of Doghouse Studios. Xan is married to her high-school sweetheart and creates dogcentric photos, paintings, mosaics, sculptures, writing, and photography. She says the best thing about her work is making people smile.
