It’s that time of year again!\u00a0 Do you have an arthropod lover in your family?\u00a0 If so, then here are some great gift ideas!<\/p>\n

\"Metal<\/a>

Metal “beetle” art piece by Paul Sumner.<\/p><\/div>\n

First up is an art piece that I find utterly charming.\u00a0 The artist is Paul Sumner and you can find his work\u00a0here<\/a>. I think that he calls his pieces beetles, but I think they look more like cockroaches (big shock why I love them….).\u00a0 I found this one particularly unique because it is made from a can of Black Flag insecticide.\u00a0 What can be more ironic?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Cicada<\/a>

Cicada brooch by Molly Burgess Designs.<\/p><\/div>\n

The next one is fiber art cicada brooch by\u00a0Molly Burgess Designs<\/a>.\u00a0 You can find her items on both\u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Etsy<\/a>.\u00a0 She has both larger plush items that you can hang on the wall, or smaller plush items that can be worn as a brooch.\u00a0 She also takes custom orders if you are interested in that.\u00a0 I am awaiting the piece that I ordered from her and very much looking forward to it!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Bee<\/a>

Bee spoon ring by Spoonier.<\/p><\/div>\n

Item number three is a piece of jewelry- a bee spoon ring- from an artist that I purchased from earlier in the year (my items had a dragon and griffin on them instead of insects).\u00a0\u00a0Spoonier<\/a>\u00a0takes antique spoons and turns them into spoon rings and bracelets.\u00a0 You can find their items for sale on Etsy, but you can also follow them on\u00a0Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Plush<\/a>

Plush spider by Alvamade Toys.<\/p><\/div>\n

Alvamade Toys<\/a>\u00a0makes plush toys and sells on Etsy.\u00a0 I love her plush spiders!\u00a0 You can also follow her on\u00a0Instagram here<\/a>.\u00a0 She not only makes plush spider toys, but also other items such as Pokemon, mushrooms, owls, raccoons, pigs, cows, and various other creatures.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Butterfly<\/a>

Butterfly wing pendant by Elemental Urchin.<\/p><\/div>\n

If you are looking for a necklace charm,\u00a0Elemental Urchin<\/a>\u00a0has created beautiful pendants that encase butterfly wings.\u00a0 She also has some really cute whales, octopodes, and other creatures.\u00a0 You can buy her items on Etsy and follow here on\u00a0Instagram here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Pillbugs<\/a>

Pillbugs by Art by Ariel.<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

The next item is another clever piece of art that my husband came across. It’s from Art by Ariel and she sells on\u00a0Society 6 here<\/a>\u00a0and you can follow her on\u00a0Instagram here<\/a>.\u00a0 I love the print because it’s such a good pun…..get it? …..Pillbugs…..<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Yellies!<\/a>

Yellies! by Hasbro.<\/p><\/div>\n

The last item is mass-produced, but still interesting.\u00a0 One of the “hot toys” of the season is called a\u00a0Yellies!<\/a>\u00a0 It’s a mechanical plush spider, but that’s not all.\u00a0 Apparently, the more you yell at it, the faster it moves.\u00a0 That’s some serious therapy for arachnophobes out there!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here’s hoping that you have a wonderful holiday season!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
