Organic Edamame Corn Bug Brooch

Description

Organic vegetables, and herbs make up this unusual brooch. The Leaf Measures approx 2" and is a resting place for the Flying Edamame Bug .

You've never heard of a flying Edamame Corn Bug? They are very elusive. Even on the organic farm where the insects and butterfly's, bees and birds are offered a free lunch with no fear of it being their last, this little guy is always shy and you may never catch a fleeting glimpse of him.

I just happened to spot him one day, quite by accident, it was only for a moment, so quick sometimes I think it just might have been my imagination, but from memory I have tried to recreate him for you, so that you won't have to go a whole lifetime never seeing one.

His body is shaped and colored like a row of corn on the cob, his wings, are very fairy like and resemble sage leaves, and his head looks very much like an edamame bean, which is why I have place him on his favorite leaf, an edamame, or soy leaf.

The leaf is trimmed in gold to match the back which is finished with a covered pin and signed by the artist.

I have to tell you, and this is no lie, my husband just loves this little guy, I can't figure out why, but who wouldn't love this fellow?

I guarantee you won't see another one of these!
