"Full of character!"

This bright orange little fellow is full of character and is brightening my desktop - Id rather have him on display than use him as a keychain! I love the intricate little details and his happy expression. Thank-you!

"Very sweet Magenta Owl!"

I bought this to turn into an ornament for my Holiday tree...I didnt get it on the tree in 2022 -- so this will be a beautiful new treasure to add for Christmas this year. I have a clay bead from Mali that I will paint to coordinate. Claudios work never disappoints. I have made several purchases.

"Hoooooooowl!"

This reminds me of my three dogs and how they used to get all energetic and demand to go out in the yard as the night shone down on us. Precious, treasured memories.

"Monkeying around!"

This is such a winsome figure! Everything about it makes me happy and I sort of wish she were alive so I could play with her (Rainbow!) I put him on the back of a larger, scampering monkey light, curated by Ruth Arfel. I could not be happier. I love it.
