Beautifully detailed mushrooms with bumble bee buddies to decorate your cottage 💛. Custom made, you pick how many and which mushrooms or animals(even if you do see them listed- message me and see if i can do it for you!). Don’t see one you want, let me know and I can get it done for you! Made from pine wood, hand cut, burned, and finished with white gel pen accents. No seals, stains, etc. (if you’d like a deal, please let me know) Custom made when ordered, so there is no limit to how many or which illustration you can purchase! Each design is unique and done by hand, no stencils, so each will differ just slightly. But that’s part of the magic of handmade art! If you choose to have an ornament made, please choose the string color from the picture listed above. If no string color is chosen, I will choose whichever matches best. Thank you!

Rocket News 24, a wonderful site for learning about pop culture in Japan, informs us that sculpting with drinking straws has become a big thing in Japan. You can see examples here.

When I said I'd created gifts for the Beaver Patrol, you knew I'd made coordinating cards, right? --------- Dimensional Beaver Cards Materials: brown cardstock white cardstock paper trimmer scissors brown marker black marker craft glue Steps: Prepare the materials. Use the paper trimmer to cut: brown cardstock - 9" x 3.5" white cardstock - 8.5" x 3" With scissors, cut: two white teeth two white eyes two brown ears one brown nose one brown tail Use the brown pen to outline the nose and draw crosshatches on the tail. Use the black pen to draw pupils on the eyes. Fold the brown paper into thirds. Glue two teeth onto the top and two ears on the sides. Center the white paper on the brown paper and glue it in place. It will trap the ears and the teeth. Refold the brown paper, which will add folds to the white paper that is now glued to it. Glue the nose and eyes to the front of the card. Fold a small flap on the end of the tail, then glue that tab to the card. You want the tail to flop down when the card is out of its envelope... .... but fold up for mailing. Quick trivia question: What do you call a group of beavers? Answer: Colony. Steve used all of the beaver cards I made, but I like them so much I may need to make more. Although now that I think about it, are there occasions that really call for a beaver card? International Beaver Day is April 7, so maybe that's just the occasion I need to justify more cards.

These bright, little beauties are very carefully hand painted with all different bright colors with patterns. I spend many hours and days, searching the woods for perfect acorns! Then to preserve them, they are cleaned in bleach water and baked for several hours to dry and kill the insects inside. Once they are dry, I attach them to trays and hand wash each one again. I paint 2-3 coats of base paint on every acorn, (without tops on them) Then I carefully hand paint each acorn with a large variety of patterns so you can order several sets and have all different ones. At this point, they sit to dry and then I brush on a polycrylic sealer to make them strong and let them harden over night. Lastly, I match them up to tops and glue them back together! It is a long process to produce a quality painted acorn that will last you a lot of seasons! PLEASE NOTE that the acorn sizes vary, some will be bigger and some will be smaller. Some years, the acorns are not as big as others. I do my best to give you the biggest ones I can! The photos show you samples of the average size of my acorns. They are sold in sets of 6 and all different ones will be chosen for you. Acorns are shipped in Eco-friendly, Kraft boxes with filler. ***These acorns are a choking hazard and should be kept out of reach of small children and pets!! They are meant for decorative purposes only. ***
