kit one - the snake

kit one - the snakekit one - the snakekit one - the snake

the make a snake kit includes everything you need to paint, sew, and stuff a 29 inch long snake suitable for blocking cold air at the foot of a door. this "draft dodger" (as he now is affectionately known) includes a snake front and back (expertly screen printed in water-based ink on 100% cotton), acrylic paint set with brush, needle, thread, wool felt tongue, stuffing (although we recommend supplementing his guts with dried beans, old socks etc), and instructions. 

he and his friends (to follow) are the culmination of a long summer, and we are so excited to be launching these craft kits geared  for children, but perfectly acceptable for completion by their larger adult friends.

will be posting the first of them to the etsy shop in the next few days (although contemplating switching to big cartel - any thoughts out there?)
