Aurea (Sold) is a little black Christmas mouse. Dressed in Stof Christmas Shimmer 'Falling Pine Cones'. Grey spruce and cones with golden highlights and a black ground. Trimmed with golden ribbon, a little black sampler pillow and tiny black leather shoes. Her underskirts are antique golden silk with black tulle lace.
Aurea has snowflake obsidian to her heart with frankensence to her heart.
I think of these little sweeties as marmite mice, people either love a black mouse for Christmas or not. I really love the richness in their colours. This little girl is travelling to Mexico, I hope she gets there in time.
Eurig (Sold)is a country gentleman mouse with black 'tweed' plus fours and a golden silk scarf. His details are picked out in gold and black, with a crisp white linen shirt and a dapper Shimmer waistcoat he is quite the gentleman.
Each leather ear is held for extra strength with a tiny seed bead and in this series their ear beads are golden as are their eyelashes, I love these details.
Aurelie(Sold) like her sister Aurea is a little black mouse dressed in a Christmas Shimmer fabric with greys, golds and black. Her winter warm cape is a lovely rich charcoal wool felt lined with the same fabric as Eurig's troos.
Wrapped up ready for a cold winter walk she is another marmite mouse but I really enjoy the colours. I made two sets of these mice this year and one set is going to a home with a black feather Christmas tree! All his decorations are black and gold. He promised to send me a photograph!
