A 15 1/2" tall snowman is leaning against an 18" tall lamp post, this measures
11" wide.. The snowman is made of cotton flannel and stuffed with polyester
fiberfill. He's lightly coffee stained and has embroidered eyes and mouth and a
painted, wooden dowel, carrot nose. The snowman wears a coat of 2 shades of blue
and 2 shades of gray wool fabric in a small plaid design. His scarf is 2 shades
of blue flannel plaid. the same fabric I used for the band on his felt top hat.
The Lamp post is a redesigned, recycled patio light and measures 6" in
diameter. I altered it so it holds a battery operated candle that uses 2 AA
batteries (included). The snowman is actually stitched to the lamp.

This Santa is created with a recycled mayonnaise jar as the lower half of his
body making him a candy container. 12 1/2" tall and 5 1/2" wide at the
shoulders, his head and hands are cotton fabric stuffied with polyester
fiberfill. His nose is needle sculpted and his eyes. are embroidered. His
hair and beard are clean raw wool. I've made the robe of dark cranberry red
crushed velvet with cotton batting trim. He carries a drum and a tiny jointed
teddy bear.

With winter comes the need for our fine feathered friends to find a warm cozy
home in which to hunker down in to sit out the cold winter months. Our cardinal
is busy negotiating a warm resting spot in our snowman's broom, a perfect place
to build his nest. Based on the smile on our snowman's face, I would say it's a
"yes".
Our snowman stands approximately 12" high, has a black top hat,
scarf and warm wool vest. We used a 4" antique square head rusty nail for his
nose, doll joints for his eyes, embellished him with rusty bells and pins and
gave him a grapevine broom in one hand and our 3" red cardinal friend in the
other.
Bird in the Hand is handmade by me, Laura Hakes, the original
designer. He will come to you signed and dated, with a rusty heart on his vest,
indicating he is an original Fiddlestix Design.
