The Nutcracker inspired Half-vent Minis Set; PRE-ORDER

This is a NEW advent set for 2026 inspired by the art of Maurice Sendak; there are four Maurice Sendak inspired sets this year and will consist of 12 minis at 20g or 25g  per mini (depending on your base choice). Each set will be colors inspired by the artwork from that story, and will be cohesive in palette, but not necessarily in a gradient color order or progression. Each set will be lovely on its own, or can be combined with any other Maurice Sendak set for a larger color palette.

This set is THE NUTCRACKER

The Nutcracker costume and set designs were done by Sendak in 1983 for Pacific Northwest Ballet, and the illustrations for the book version of this story are breathtaking! 

Colors in this set will be layered and mottled; there may be some slight speckling and will definitely be tonal shifts within the skeins

This listing will be available to pre-order until March 25, and will ship in July

This set will be sent in one clear sleeve, so the sets won't be a mystery once they are shipped out; you will see the entire set when you open your package.


PLEASE do not purchase any ready to ship items with this listing! You may purchase any of the other Maurice Sendak minis sets with this listing, but not any other items. These sets will not ship until JULY, and any items purchased with these listings will be canceled and refunded.

There is the option for these sets to pay a DEPOSIT today of $25, and pay three additional equal payments that will be invoiced in April, May, and June. To keep my drop down menu easy, the deposit option doesn't have a way to let me know what base you want so I will message you for that once you purchase the deposit option. If you place a deposit and don't pay the additional invoices you won't receive a set, and the deposit is non-refundable.
