This personalised letter along with a hand-painted decoration is designed to be gifted on Christmas Eve. Little Mouse has written to your nearest and dearest explaining the importance of going to sleep in preparation for Santa. The personalised letter and decoration arrives beautifully wrapped in a box. Mouse is hand-painted and is 15cm high, 9cm wide. The personalised letter says the following:Dear "Recipient"
It’s the Eve before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature has stirred, apart from me, little mouse! I’ve been busy, pitter pat, with a huff and a puff, bright crown, tailcoat smart, gold and white ruff. The softest green boots, ready to welcome winters night, bells will ring overhead from a starry sleigh in flight! Diamonds on my crown shining like the sky above, to be here, with you, I feel so very loved! Tip tapping along the skirting board, the house is looking fine, a hurry and a scurry, oh how the lights shine! Darting back and forth, my beady eyes are tired, this is a fine place to be and one I’ve long admired
You see the smallest of us have a very big part to play, in making sure we’re snug as a bug and ready for the day. Might you find a little resting place for me to lay my head? I do feel very sleepy and yearn for a warm, soft bed. Place me somewhere of your choosing, where I may take reprieve, for I, little mouse will be your guardian on this special Christmas Eve. I will keep my ears open for sleigh bells and ringing overhead, I will stay awake for you, so you may get some rest.
But before we settle down, I have something to proclaim, in all these years I’ve never, ever, been given a name! Might you look toward my little face and search deep in your heart, choose me a name, I’m sure you’ll make it a work of art. A promise from me, little mouse, as we lay down, warm and cosy, a pledge for tonight and every night, eyes shut, cheeks pink and rosy. Little mouse knows you’re tired, so little mouse will stay, we’ll open our beady eyes together on Christmas day. Remember, from little Mouse, that magic can always be found, as true as the sparkling gold upon my crown. And that wherever you go, or wherever you reside, true joy comes from the gifts we have inside. With love, Your Christmas Eve Mouse
This gift is boxed and beautifully wrapped with dried flowers and tissue paper. -
A gorgeous Giftbox of my book and a small posy of farm dried blooms with a handwritten note. This is the perfect present to gift, as the Tussie Mussie was a small posy of blooms that developed in the Victorian era. It reflected the need for the language of flowers conveying a specific sentiment to the recipient. I have teamed it with my book "Upon a Billowy Breeze - Hope". "Hope will always find its wings and fly back to us, even when we think it’s flown the nest” A book written and illustrated for all ages. A tale that follows the animals, the farm and the family that reside on a farmstead in the middle of Dartmoor. It was written under the trees of Lurcombe Farm, where walks in the woods and toasted marshmallows by firelight in the summer of 2020 helped us rediscover a simpler way of life. May it be read as you curl up by the fire as a love letter to the countryside. “Do not be afraid of shadows and shade. There is always light in the darkest of glades” This hardback self-published book has been written and illustrated, designed, proof-read and printed all within a 6 mile radius of greater Dartmoor. If you'd like me to handwrite a note on your behalf, please just leave me your message in the notes section at checkout. Thank you. -
