Squirrel Nutkin in his new home

Remember Squirrel Nutkin? He very nearly got taken home with Amy to fulfill his Christmas destiny - because truly, a squirrel nut bowl without a home at Christmas is a very sad little squirrel indeed.

Squirrel Nutkin was lucky enough to be spied by Matt and Emma on a shopping trip to our shop. He was living under a tree in the window at the time. Matt really liked him, but was shopping for other people, so couldn't very well buy himself a squirrel.

Luckily for Matt, Emma snuck back to our shop and scooped up Squirrel Nutkin as a Christmas surprise. He fulfilled his nut bowl destiny over Christmas on Matt & Emma's window sill:


We love a happy ending. Sniff.
