One of several eggs available though Lee Needlearts. Often finished on much larger forms with ruched sides and lots of fru fur on top Miriam prefers the minimal. As most of my customers do. From what I understand its mostly in the Northeast part of the country that prefers minimal embellisment on finishing. These little stands are great for turning any ornament into a simple stand-up.

I love when a music box is placed inside a pillow. Some music box workings are better than others and if important, don't skimp on the quality. I like the use of the angora on the cloud.
