I designed this poster as a sort of reference guide for kids (and grown-ups!) interested in keeping bees. The world of beekeeping is so vast and this is by no means complete. If you would like to read a bit more behind these illustrations, I wrote a short essay in the summer of last year that you can download for free right here: https://www.twigandmoth.com/free These posters are 12" x 18" and have been printed onto lovely matte 100lb card stock. They are all initialed and dated on the reverse. (Frame not included.)The generous top and bottom margins are perfect for framing using a wooden poster hanger (which also makes it very easy to change out posters every now and then). This listing does NOT include the wooden, magnetic poster hanger used in the photo. Makes a great gift for any beekeeping family! Your poster will be carefully packaged in a kraft tube for mailing. ★ Frame NOT included ★ I do my best to portray colors accurately, however different monitors (and cameras) will vary in how they display colors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER AND GET 10% OFF: https://twigandmoth.myflodesk.com/newsletter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ***Purchase does not transfer copyright.
