This is Toad. Toad is looking for a new home.... somewhere where there are more flies, I think. You see here in Canada during the winter months the flies are slim pickings and Toad is worried about loosing weight. I personally think he could afford to loose a little bit of weight, but he likes himself just the way he is. Ahhh... if we could only all be so secure in life!
Toad is made from a technique called needle felting, which involves poking and prodding different colours of wool with a extremely sharp barbed needle until you reach the perfect shape. It literally takes thousands of pokes to reach just the right sculpture.
Even though Toad hardly weighs a thing he is approx. 10 cm (4 inches) tall from his bottom to the tops of his eyes. He is cute to look at, and he comes from a smoke free home, but he is not a children's toy.
Toad is the loveliest brilliant green colour with a darker green belly and wonderful green spots on his back. Remember different monitors may show colours slightly different then they actually are, but trust me, I've worked very hard in picking out just the right colours to bring these sculptures to life!
Listing is for felted Toad only. Other display items are not included.
