Description

Bramble is a tiny mouse measuring about 3.5" when standing tall. He is hand stitched from lovely soft mini piled fabric which gives a proper fur appearance, little felt paw pads and ears. His eyes are bright shiny Onyx beads stitched in to sculpt his face and embroidered nose and claws. Bramble is thread jointed so fully posable for expression. Although tiny each little part has been made separately, turned and filled then jointed together just as a large bear would be made. It is very fiddly but somehow I'm drawn to making tiny mice! Bramble is very happy that the blackberries are ripe and has been picking them. These ones however have been knitted with tiny seed beads included and a crocheted stalk. The Bramble leaf has been made from silk with embroidered veins and a crocheted edging and measures about 5" x 3". This little mouse is very cute and great as part of a collection but is not intended as a toy for children.

A note from the seller

Hi and welcome to Born Again Bears. This name began as the first bears I made were as keepsakes and memories, made by bringing precious items back to new beginnings as special bears to cherish. I enjoy making all different types and sizes of bears and indeed mice and have enjoyed becoming part of the Folksy family as an outlet for this. International postage is a new area for me and I will happily combine postage. Please contact me for a price for this and I will do what I can to keep the cost as low as possible.
