I don’t know why, I’m just a sucker for Shyguys.  You can imagine how happy Yoshi’s Island made me, then.  They’re bouncy and colorful and make delightfully terrible noises—what’s not to love?

This also happens to currently be available for sale.

Acalyn is a coatl or a winged serpent, really quite content to sing in the highest branches of trees, though given warmth and food and a little doting, she finds human shoulders relatively decent as well.  It’s said that these songs are sure to drive away nightmares and bring pleasant dreams to all who hear them, so the next time you happen to hear songs in the forest, you may just want to stick around to listen.  You may also want to see if you can’t lure out a lovely singing coatl with some trail mix.  They love the stuff.

More information and pictures on her gallery page.  She also happens to be available for sale.

And to make this even sweeter, my partner in crafting (crimes?) over at Crafted With Zeal is having an Early Generic Holiday Sale, too!

So, had your eye on something for a while?  May as well snag it with the best (and only planned) sale for Shiny Things all year!

Wow, sold!  Maybe this means I should attempt a similar style again.  …If I can remember where I put certain things.

(Not that an appreciator of shiny things can ever complain about going through their vast collection of said shiny things to find one specific shiny thing.)
