A wonderful addition to our Merrywood Tales collection. This shepherd's hut is the perfect glamping staycation for our new family of mice. They have borrowed some human-sized trinkets to use as essential furniture in their hut. A teacup makes a perfect shower for a little mouse. Spools of old thread make for chairs to sit on, a tin of sardines creates the comfort of a baby cot and tucks neatly underneath a simple bed inside. A pimento tin doubles up as a small wood-burning stove. A safety pin becomes a towel rack and an old watch provides the time of day. Little stairs can be clipped to the front door to help them with the step-down. All can be accessed by removing the roof, or through the little doors at the front.
