Stag Beetle Brooch/Pin

At first, my stag beetles were born from a request for them by my audience on Pinterest and my desire to try out new uncharted crafting territories (uncharted by me at least).

My first pieces were all based on the actual beetle - the exact reference photo that my commenter on Pinterest had put for me. But during a live stream, me and you decided that my signature googly eyes would be a good look on them. Well, I still love both and I have a hard time making decisions sometimes, so I'm offering both - the silly and the "realistic version". Which one are you gonna take?

a small note:

This is a made-to-order product, so please allow around 2-4 weeks of waiting time (or longer, depending on the size of your order and general demand) before I ship your order out, so I can craft, bake, paint and glaze your bug. Each critter takes time and intention to sculpt, and no two will ever be quite the same.

the details:

• polymer clay, sculpted and painted by hand
• sealed with UV resin for durability and shine
  

FAQ

Are they sturdy?

Yes—they’re sealed and finished to hold up to regular wear. Still, treat them kindly.

Are they heavy?

Not at all! Polymer clay is very lightweight, surprisingly so.
