These hand-painted opossum hair clips are made from my original hand-drawn artwork, created after spending an arguably unreasonable amount of time staring at real opossums. Each opossum is laser engraved and cut from American basswood, then carefully hand painted and sealed with a glossy protective finish.
These lightweight clips are a fun choice for opossum lovers, wildlife enthusiasts, and anyone who has ever looked at a cold little opossum tail and thought, “Someone should knit that a sock.”
