Honey Bee

The fascinating Western Honey Bee's image has been supersized for your lounging and viewing enjoyment on a 19" square cushy all-weather pillow. A beautiful designer accent for your garden, deck, patio, sofa, hammock, beach blanket, Adirondack chair or seagrass mat. Painted with nontoxic, permanent, textile colors on commercial indoor-outdoor fabric, the interesting features of this industrious little creature have been realistically depicted, except for the size, that is! Her wingspan measures 15 1/2", about fifteen inches larger than the real thing.

Seeing as most of the thirty to fifty thousand workers in a hive are female, it is only befitting that I, her human counterpart, worked with such dedication and industry to get this design just right for you. Her little saddlebags are bulging with pollen to feed the voracious grubs back at the hive. She may live anywhere from six weeks to four months, depending on the climate conditions, then buzz off to that great beehive in the sky knowing that she has done her part for future generations of her kind.

Fluffed with half a pound of polyester fiberfill in a polypropylene casing, just spot clean, hose down or gentle wash the cover in cool water. Insert removes easily through the envelope closure overlap on the back. Not a reprint or transfer, but an artist's handpainted original. Designed, painted, sewn, stuffed, signed and copyrighted on a beautiful little island in Washington State, where discovering a honey bee out and about is always a source of delight.

Bee happy!
