@Franziska_Huber’s alpaca tea light holder stands out for its sweet storytelling, charming design, and warm handmade presentation. The alpaca holding a heart creates a gentle and heartfelt feeling, while the starry sky, soft colors, and glowing light effect make the whole piece feel magical and comforting.

Thank you and congratulations to you too :heart_eyes:

I love all your designs, though I’m starting to worry that you’re a little bit obsessed with alpacas.

Have you considered getting in touch with your local AA (Alpacas Anonymous) group?! :rofl:
