MALACHI: "Come on! Come on! Straighten up, boys! Daddy wants to take a photo! Jean-Pierre, fix that cap! Rusty, line up your bell neatly! Caramel Bear, stop slouching! Mutzli..."
MUTZLI: "Don't you start with me, Malachi! I'm your cousin. Remember?"
MALACH: "Hhhmmm..." *Ponders and thinks better of saying anything about Mutzli.* "Sad Sack, lift you head up!"
SAD SACK: *Whispering.* "Mutzli, why is it always the smallest bears who are the bossiest?"
MUTZLI: "That's Malachi to a tee: small, but full of personality." *Sighs.*
MALACHI: "What was that, Mutzli?"
MUTZLI: "Nothing, Malachi."
MALACHI: "I should hope not!" *Tuts.* "Alright Daddy, we are ready for our photograph to be taken now."
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 31st of May is "in a row and on a mirror". My littlest bear, Malachi (far left) has organised his friends and family (all 1:12 miniature bears) for a photograph on one of my mirrors for a glamour photography shoot. I just hope I can do them justice. From left to right: Malachi, Sad Sack, Mutzli, Caramel Bear, Rusty and Jean-Pierre. I hope that this lovely line up of 1:12 cuteness will make you smile!
Malachi I acquired in mid-March 2020 (and mid Coronavirus) from a wonderful Melbourne stalwart toy shop: Dafel Dolls and Bears, when I went looking for a present for one of my goddaughters. Malachi is designed by Mary and hand-made by Wendy Joy in Australia. He has articulated arms and legs, and an extremely sweet face. Malachi was the name he came with, written by hand on his little tag.
Mutzli was a lovely surprise gift from a dear friend in Britain who kindly slipped him into a parcel of other delightful gifts for me. Like Malachi, he is mohair, has articulated arms and legs, and an extremely sweet face. Mutzli got his name from the tiny gold tag around his neck. He is made by Mutzli, a Swiss bear manufacturer since 1949.
