I’ve some good news!
I’ve been approved by Amazon to sell my handmade ornaments. So far, I’m making Christmas Chihuahuas to stand and also ones to hang from the Christmas tree.
They’re very small, the base is 5 or 6 cms wide; with Christmas tree 6 cms tall; the tiny chi 4 cms tall. All sizes approximate.
Each one is unique. Made without molds, hand painted clay and wooden shapes with acrylics, sealed with gloss. With varying colours and embellishments. And, a fine sprinkle of mica glitters! The standing ones have a protective layer of felt to their bases.
They will be safely packed in strong cardboard boxes with internal packing as they are delicate. Each one arrives with its own organza bag and artist card. So, they make great gifts.
I don’t know if I can also sell them on Amazon / North America… But, I will also be selling them direct – just message me in the comments – and, via Folksy, the British based handmade web site. I’m on Amazon Europe.
Each one is £20 plus postage and packing.
I’m open to requests for certain colours.

They are adorable, Faith. I would love to get one, but I would be worried about shipping to Canada. I would hate to have it break.

Sounds good. I will have to wait until my next payday – can you take Paypal?

Yes, I take PayPal. I can make you one with different colours if you like. I’ll look into the insurance side for the postage.

I like the colours just the way they are. But is there anyway you could write “Blaze” on the base? I would get it for a dear friend who lost her beloved little Chihuahua.

Yes, I can do that. What colour was her chi? (Sorry to hear of her loss).

He was really close to the one you made, which is what drew me to the ornament as a gift for her. She has had a really rough couple of years so I wanted to do something nice for her and I think this is perfect! Would you mind letting me know how much the postage is going to be?

You’re a kind friend 🙂
The colour of this one is a lilacy-grey-beige. (All pc monitors display colours differently). Also, the tree is greener rather than darker. Their eyes are real onyx beads, black – will shine well with a soft cloth.
