So, we’re going to ask Tulsi Gabbard all about her support for Bashar al-Assad, right?

"Selene" sits just over 3" high. She is the goddess of cold, moonlit, starry nights! £45. I shall be doing another, small craft fair on the the 14th, so, if you want any of the bears I'm posting, get your claim in before then! 🤣

Nessie sits just 3" high, her fur symbolises the dense woodlands that still grow on the banks. The bright blue of the summer waters, and the dark blue of the mysterious waters at night. And, of course, Nessie is as symbolic of Scotland as tartan is! £40, includes postage etc in the UK only.
