Little Bertrand always wished he was a reindeer on Santa's team....When he sleeps at night, this is what his dreams are made of.
Thank you for stopping by to see my latest creation!! This is Kris Kringle and Bertrand the Polar bear! They are one of a kind, never to be repeated.
This set is my own pattern and design. Bertrand is 24" long and the set is 24" high. *****Free shipping*****No Reserve*****
Kris Kringle is made of muslin, has separately stitched on legs, arms and a separately stitched 4 piece head. I have given him many grungy "baths" and sanded him, painted him flesh color, then more sanding and grunging. Santa has separately stitched on eyelids and a needle sculpted nose. His lips are done in watercolour pencils and he has sparkling blue eyes, hand painted with acrylics and watercolour pencils. I have shaded his face in all the right places. Kris has the most divine needle felted, curly Cotswold wool hair and beard. I use Gloria Lowell's wool and it is clean and lovely....
Mr. Kringle is wearing PJ's of course!!! His pants are made of quality seasonal Toile in cream and deep crimson. They have a silver ribbon drawstring waist and vintage style antique silver garland hand sewn around legs. His sleep shirt is made of Kona cotton with hand stitched garland trim around the neckline, cuffs and bottom, with 3 rustic reindeer buttons stitched down the front. His removable sleep cap is made of the same Toile with garland trim. He has painted stockings on his feet in deep crimson and antique white
Bertrand is made of muslin that has been stuffed up firm. He has separately attached legs and stands very securely. He has a little tail and two separately stitched ears. Bertrand has black German made glass eyes on a loop and a little chocolate wool for shading. His nose and mouth are felted wool as well. I gave this little Polar bear a thorough staining and painting and then needle felted him with 3 bags of cleaned, natural, cream roving wool. He smells so nice too..... Bert wears a matching Toile collar with 22 silver bells hand sewn in place
