Skully Valentine Heart Pin or Ornament

$6.00
At 1 1/2" wide X 2" long, Skully Heart would be perfect pinned to your favorite bag, purse, or hat. Or make a statement by hanging him somewhere.

Skully's head is polymer clay, painted with acrylics and sealed with a matte varnish. (His head is actually a bead, so I've sewn it on to ensure it will not come lose.) The heart is felt, with glittery red tinsel "threads" running through it. Beads are glass.

Let me know if you would like a pinback or a coordinating ribbon attached to the back (for hanging)!

Kentucky Hill Fairy- Wallace

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:22:59 -0400

$19.00
**REDUCED PRICE**

Accurate color is hard to capture. Please see the 4th picture down (in natural light) for a more accurate representation of color.

Wallace hails from the hillsides of Kentucky, where he likes to climb really high up and look out over the beautiful countryside. He has beautiful moth wings, but has not done a lot of flying since he's gotten up in his years. Wallace's "antennae" are actually long tufts of his wool hair. Wallace likes to get together with his neighbors once a week to play the banjo in their bluegrass band. Occasionally he plays the jug too.

Wallace is 2 1/4 inches tall and has a wingspan of about 4 1/2 inches. Wallace is made from 100% Corriedale wool roving (in chocolate, copper, and tan wools) and has glass eyes. Every detail has been sculpted by needle-felting, a process by which a barbed needle is punched into wool hundreds or millions of times to pack it into a shape. (Yes, it is time-consuming!) His wings have thin copper jewelry wire embedded inside to help support them.

Wallace would be happy sitting on your mantle or window sill, or anywhere high up where he has a good view.

This piece is much cuter in person- I had a hard time capturing the true colors and charisma of Wallace on film.

$22.00
Crazy Daisy Dave is sculpted from brightly colored wool roving. He has a thin copper wire embedded in his stalk and root-feet to help support him, so he is somewhat posable.
