Clock Case Dioramas
I make small scenes in vintage clock cases with a needle felted animal and hand made accessories. Perfect to hang on a wall or display on a shelf. Inside is a scene, often based around a seasonal item or a folklore story or can be to celebrate a birthday or birth of a grandchild or such.
