Green Tomato Pinkeep

I know this is not exactly Christmas related but I just couldn’t resist! I love making these tomatoes so much and thought a strawberry on top was the perfect choice. This was made using beautiful hand dyed green wool from Blackberry Primitives. I added a few red glass-head pins, a beautiful handmade tomato pin from Pink Dragonfly Crafts on Etsy, and a silver heart in hand charm. It’s firmly stuffed/filled with 2 1/2 - 3 cups of crushed walnut shells to keep your pins and needles sharp. The pink strawberry is firmly attached to the tomato. It is approximately 4 1/2” tall. Kindly asking $90.00 and $10.00 for travel fare.

***SOLD***Wool Snowman Head on Vintage Wooden Thread Spool

My last snowman head made out of overdyed white wool is not a white wool but more of a dirty white. He has an all hand sewn face and I’ve added buttons for eyes and his little beads for his toothy smile! He’s stuffed tightly and has been glued to a vintage wooden thread spool! I’ve added a little sari silk bow and bell to the front. His hat is made of an overdyed black wool and a little wool strip for trim along the brim and a bit of greenery with glitter glue. He stands 3 3/4” tall to the top of his head and to the top of his hat is 5”! He’s about 3” wide and can be a sweet holiday decoration or used as a pincushion if you choose. Kindly asking $35 plus shipping. If any questions please ask! Thank you.
