mirtilio

Thanks to a special order I had the chance to do these two big birds with their chicks. Now they are taking their long journey overseas to the United States. I hope they help the plane to fly faster to arrive still on time for Christmas. Unfortunately I had to send them so soon, that I didnt have the chance anymore to take proper pictures. But as  I enjoyed it a lot I am sure that this wont be my last birds.

 They are a present for two boys so I felted them very strongly that they can be used as a toy. I imediately did another eagle for my kids to experiment the durability in children hands. But I find more and more amazing the quality of this wonderful natural material, as even with the use the animals maintain their shape and keep this beautiful expressive look as if they would be alive.

For me a wonderful alternative to all this plastic junk, that I always feel guilty when bringing to the garbage. OK of course the kids have their wishes.... but they do have a different glance in their eyes when they have one of these animals in their hands.
