Now that the big Wool Week event is behind us, I’m going to start posting Behind-the-Scenes photos and spotlights of some of the accessories we made for the set-ups. For starters, here are close-up pictures of the miniature hand-painted ornaments and souvenir bells that appeared in the photos of Bunty’s new Sheep Shop.
The ornaments are one-inch shatterproof balls in various colors. Elizabeth painted sheep art on them using acrylic paints. We’ll start with photos of the Sheep Shop souvenir ornaments that feature a stylized sheep (based on the official Campaign for Wool sheep) on the front of the ball and the Sheep Shop logo on the back. There’s also a bonus ornament (fifth photo below) with shows one of the white sheep as seen in one of Bunty’s favorite books, Ida and the Wool Smugglers.
Next is a series of ornaments featuring various sheep breeds. The face of the sheep is on the front of the ornament, the breed name on the back. There’s even an ornament featuring Sheepie!
And for those shoppers who are looking for another type of unique souvenir, there are hand-painted metal bells with the Sheep Shop logo painted on them (featuring both the white and green versions).
These are available for purchase, so that your doll can have their own souvenir of Islandshire’s grand Wool Week event. The first ornament would be $15.00 shipped (to USA addresses). If you buy more than one ornament in one transaction, each of the others would be $12. To snag the one(s) you want before they’re gone, just send a note to me via the “Contact Us” button at the top of the right-hand column on this page.
Stay tuned for more photos from Bunty’s Sheep Shop and Wool Week!
