My favourite object

My team and I crafted these feathery friends to be photographed for the packaging of our new Cardboard Tube Craft Kits. On the day spent doing so, I had a “wow, I do arts & crafts like it’s my job (literally)” moment. Now they hang out on our bookshelf. It’s fun to hear office guests comment on their cuteness while passing by.
