#06 ALBERTO Stag

Alberto Stag #06 


The Official Instructor at the:
Reindeer Academy of Flight
He is the #06, of my Second Series of
WEEFOLK 
Sorry he has been “ADOPTED”
This is his story and his pet dog, "Ho-Ho"
along with
information about  the last two in this Series,
#02-Bubba Bows & #05 Rusty Tarnsh
still up for adoption


Each of them has a hand sewn tag  attached somewhere on them!
The tags are hand written and have Their :
Names, Series, # and Job title
As I hand sculpt each face they come to life in my hands.
Each one a "One of A Kind, Work of ART".
With the pull of my needle' & Thread,
they start to take shape and become a 
Lil' WEE FOLK
and this is when I start to decide on the Names and Jobs they will have.

I have tried to give them each there own personalities and accessories to go with them,
on there Journeys with their new adopted families.
They each have a story and a very important Job title at the North Pole!
This one is :
Alberto Stag,  has his trusty dog, “Ho-Ho 
Created from a recycled, Vintage Mohair Coat.
He has velvet lined ears!
I created him from information I gathered on the Real Breed!

He isn’t just a regular pup...

He is from a special breed of dogs...
 “ Hungarian Pumi”
a agile herding dog ,
this breed of medium to small size are  very intelligent and very energetic. 
A versatile stock dog, equally adept at gathering, driving and keeping the
 Reindeer stock under control. 
Ho~Ho, can also  hunt rodents!
 He  alsew helps in the Reindeer Stables to keep rodents away from The livestock



As with all my 2017 Second Series of "WEE FOLK" 
you will find on there handmade shoe soles,
A Machine embroidered  picture too show their " Job Title"
Generally their names alsew are a part of their Job Titles...
along with my Signature and a Bumble Bee which is one of my  my Trademark's
He alsew has Reindeer buttons on his shoes. & Bib Shorts.
Bells on his vest, with a special pocket!
One of his friends he left behind is, 

#03, Rusty Tarnish
spends a lot of his time in the stables polishing the Sleigh  Bells and Reindeer  Harnesses.
This is how he and Alberto became such good friends...
And On their days off they enjoy flying with
#05 Avi-Ator COPA

My WEE FOLK are created and Designed with


95% Canadian Manufactured  Products, from thread, fabrics and Stuffing...

Santa's Reindeer are separated into two groups when they are very young.
One group is the special ones that have the ability to fly!
This is in the Genetics' in the DNA in their  Blood Line.
These Reindeers are the only ones that can "Learn" too fly!

Other Reindeer have the tasks of pulling Sleds, roaming free, or becoming PETS!
#04 Fred Flackery is one of the lucky WeeFolk that have one of the flying reindeer.
This is Only because his Flying Reindeer helps assist him in doing his job at the North Pole!

He always carries a supply of Carrots in his pocket for special treats.
They alsew help with "Night Vision" and  in helping keep a reindeers teeth clean! 

Alberto Stag carries his Flight Controller flags with him most of the time.
On those occasions that he hasn't got them with him,
HO~HO keeps a eye on them.
As the handles are made from dried Cinnamon Bark.
Another favorite of the Flying Reindeer!
His Flags, have been created from scraps left over from the Special, Wind Sock fabric!
