Okapi Box~with tiny okapi dollie

I finished this "Okapi Moon Box" a couple of months ago and I just made a tiny okapi dollie (about the size of a quarter) to go inside the box. The box will be for sale at my show.

This is such a beautiful box, and the little okapi inside is adorable!

:) See some of those knitting scraps there Nicole? Those ones came from my friend Lynn Garrett. But the scraps you sent might show up in a dolly soon! I made it with wool and thick book binding thread so it would look handcrafted. Inside is cotton and I painted stripes on with acrylic. The tail is a little knitting scrap. :)

Oh also I drew the shape out first so I had a pattern to go from. :)
