For Owners: Custom wool pet sculptures
You may have already immortalized your beloved furry friend with a painted portrait, but why stop there? A sculpted wool portrait by Amelia Santiago is truly the 'piece de resistance' of dog portraits. They're sort of like custom "webkinz" on steroids. Santiago sculpts your pet's likeness out of 100% wool using a super-cool technique called needle felting--literally sculpting the fibers like clay. No patterns, no thread, no sewing--just your provided photo and some serious sculpting skills. Sculpture sizes range from about 6" x 8" to 9" x 11" depending on breed size. We're really digging on the option to add cute extras like crowns, a fave ball or toy, or other details to really make the sculpture your own. They make unique gifts, too.
