Exotic alright

Every Inchie Monday is fantastically clever. Exotic is the key word for the week. It's exotic for a start, as it does not follow the last letter of the previous word (which was Nymph, so this week had to start with H). And the other thought that came to mind is the star-nosed mole. Have a look at pics here, or google him. What else will life think of?! Who walks around with a nose like that?! Til I discovered the star nose, our animals were the coolest in the world. They still are, but just look at that star nose!



Moo Mania & More have Crowns as the keyword this fortnight. I have a miniature version of my winning piece from last year. This is St. Edward's crown stuck on a moo.


And now I have a good excuse to show off once again my winning glory at the 2014 Royal Melbourne show - see here and here.

    now that is some critter - kind of creepy too! - not sure I'm going to be able to forget him either. You do still have the best animals though. Great take on exotic - as always, love the crown

      We should move the mole over here as well to expand our weird collection.

    I have never seen a star-nosed mole before, and just maybe I wish I still hadn't LOL! Poor little thing. Always fun to see what you will come up with, Zoe!

      Neither have I until I was researching something to do with quilling (and completely unrelated to the mole), and came across copious images of this animal.

    That mole sure is ugly, but a great inchie, and the crown is great.

    Oh yes - you have the best animals in the world - and lots of them are cute. Fantastic inchie of a not so cute animal.
    Love your crown.
