Description
These are two felted wool mice made to hang, and each one has its own small character. One wears round glasses, a bow at the neck and knitted trousers with braces, and holds a tiny picture card. The other is dressed in a roll-neck jumper and a knitted skirt and holds a felt stocking. Both are 100% wool, felted into soft, dense little bodies with rounded ears, stitched faces and long thin tails, and their overall colour is white. The decorations are 13cm tall, 9cm long and 5cm wide, a size that sits comfortably among the branches of a full tree without being lost.
They are Christmas decorations first, made for a tree, a garland or a bundle of bare branches in a tall vase, and a fine hanging cord at the top of each head lets them go straight onto a twig. Because they come as a pair, they read as a little couple, so they look right hung close together on one branch or either side of a window. A white tree scheme suits them especially well, as does a mantelpiece of winter greenery, and they make a thoughtful small present for anyone who likes a tree with a few characters on it.
The wool is felted, and felt is dense and holds its shape well, which suits small figures like these. The clothes are knitted, which adds a second texture against the felted faces. Care is spot clean only: no washing machine, no dryer and no iron, so treat any mark on the spot rather than washing the whole mouse. The weight is given as 0.028KG, light enough for a slim branch. For styling, hang them at eye level, where the glasses, the bow and the stocking can be seen up close, and keep the branches around them simple.
