September and October are really busy months for me at work. I have to put in some long hours. So to make the hours seem a little less daunting, I decided to take some of my extra revenue and invest in a lovely spun cotton creation from artist Flora Thompson over at Bone Head Studios. If you have never visited her site, you can skip on over and check her wonderful art out by clicking here. Flora is an amazingly talented sculptor. If you haven't been to her site before, take the time to go through all of her early posts. Her whimsical creations are from the most enchanting world of her imagination. The sketches of her creations, prior to being sculpted, are equally as fantastic!
I have admired Flora's work for years and began following her blog after falling in love with her impish elf creatures. I just cannot say enough about my admiration of her talent. A quartet of her latest creations, recently revealed on the blog for Bone Head Studios, were too cute for words... They were a little group named the "MushMellies". All I knew when I saw them was: One of those little guys needs to come live with me! So I got on Flora's waiting list...
Look at the package that just arrived in the mail. I didn't know it was on its way. So, I almost passed out from excitement when I saw this guy on the side of the box! It screams Bone Head Studios...
Flora's attention to precise detail and decoration is unmatched...
It makes me smile looking at this photo. I cannot believe he is mine!! His expression is absolutely priceless...
Can you see his little teeth? I am in love... My own little slightly toasted marshmellowie "MushMellie".
Even Mr. Hollow was impressed with this little guy. He told me to arrange him, so he could stay safe in his wonderfully decorated bag. My little "MushMellie" will be taking his place of honor in the display cabinet with his "soon to be" Halloween friends. What a lovely handmade creation... *sigh*
Flora's work is as impressive in person as it has been in the photos I have marveled at over the years! :)
