A Mouse tribute to the Movie Classics

Please meet Rat Butler... He is a dapper fellow in his tux and hat... He stands 4"1/4" tall, lovingly needle felted with merino wool..  His hat and jacket are removable.  His tail is wire and thread.. He is available on Ebay here if you would like to visit his auction.





Then we have Scarlet

A sassy little mouse... She stands 4 1/2/" tall in her hand sewn sheer red ribbon dress.
She was also needle felted. I must admit the dress was a bit of a challenge.. I designed it on her, starting at the bottom and working up...  I also fashioned her a needle felted hat.  If you would like to visit her auction you will find her here on Ebay
I hope you have enjoyed viewing.  Thank you so much for stopping by.



Wishing you all a beautiful and creative week.
Blessings,
Penny

  6. Gone the the Wind! I can seriously say that since wind storms knocked a 40foot tree in our yard and we were also without power for the last 5 days.. I have been kinda busy this week.. I love the little pointy noses on the couple, and the glorious gown for Scarlet. She is such a Belle!

  13. Well, frankly my dear... they're absolutely gorgeous! Just divine. That red dress? Stunning, with those rows of gauzy ribbons. And he looks so dapper!

    Oh, and I had the volume of my computer turned up and didn't know it, so the 'Gone with the Wind' theme scared the heck out of me!

    Tea Rat: Mousterpieces. Tee hee hee.

    Rattus: Be serious. I mean that Rat Butler seems a snappy and witty fellow.

    Tea Rat: And I know that that Scarlet needs.

    Rattus: What?

    Tea Rat: She needs kissing, badly. And by someone who knows how.

    Rattus: Oh brother.

  26. Penny, it's a good thing we're not using Skype or anything like that. I mean, each time I visit your page I'm pretty sure my bought is open and my jaw on the floor. ;) Surreal is the word that comes to mind for your craft. Love this perfect couple, especially since I'm a huge movie fan. Rat Butler...too cute.
    Thank you for stopping by, love. Glad you enjoyed Love's dressing room tour. ;)
    MUAH!
