    The craft of taxidermy has been enjoying a recent revival. Antique animal heads and framed critters have been popping up on the walls of trendy bars, and courses in teaching the skills have seen a surge in popularity.

    But for those who feel a but unsure at the idea of a dead creature in their living room, there are plenty of interesting replicas popping up on the high street. And our cross stitched version by Floss & Mischief is guaranteed to bring a touch of Victoriana style to your home - minus the creepiness!

    The design size for this funky bug is a whopping 15.5x21.5cm, and it'll take about 16 hours to stitch! If you like this, you can find more brilliant bugs at www.flossandmischief.com.
