Some of you may already know about the Wombat Friday sensation that is sweeping the circle of Pre-Raphaelite bloggers of whom I'm fond. It started when Stephanie Pina of the Pre-Raphaelite Sisterhood posted a photo of her wombat plushie on a Friday, and since then, numerous other dear friends who are respectable Pre-Raphaelite enthusiasts and scholars have bought wombat plushies and celebrated the end of the work week by photographing them in Pre-Raphaelite inspired ways.
If you wonder, why wombats? this wonderful blog by Kirsty Walker is a good primer.
All this to lead up to my first Wombat Friday entry:
I Cannot Paint You, But I Love You.

Your stuffed wombat is so adorable, and he (or she?) is posed perfectly. Lovely picture, too.

Here's one that popped up on my facebook feed - http://glendonmellow.blogspot.ca/2013/04/dont-make-wombats-explode.html
Cute.
Grace, I SO LOVE IT that we have the same wombat!
Thanks Pound Foolish! His name is Morris ;)
Pat, that's adorable!
Morgan, yay!
Stephanie, ME TOO
Adorkable! I need me a wombat to get in on this fun. Normally I use an orange octopus toy for amusing photos, but I don't see it being possible to disguise him as a wombat.
Now, where did you get the pewter-y looking statue? She's gorgeous!
Victorian Librarian, the statue used to be sold by Past Times catalog. It's VERY rare to see them come up on ebay..thankfully a friend from England was willing to help me bid and ship it to me! :)
