A photo of a sparkly blue wombat vinyl sticker, held in front of a green plant.
I only have 15 stickers of this cute sparkly wombat! I won’t be restocking this kind of sparkly sticker (I actually don’t think the printing shop offers it anymore!). All proceeds will go towards a charity helping charities fight mange!

6 colourful wombats in different poses and positions. One purple wombat with a leaf on its head, a pink wombat with her green baby wombat, one blue wombat, one baby orange wombat wrapped in a blanket, one sleeping green wombat, and one yellow wombat.
Happy Wombat Day!
I don’t think these lil chonkas get enough recognition. I love them! So much so I made these paintings into stickers! AND with every sticker sold, proceeds go to a charity combating mange in Wombats. Check them out in the link below👇

Cropped image from a book, showing an engraving of two wombats walking on the ground, with vegetation around them. One wombat is a darker colour and one is a lighter colour. They are very rotund and look very fluffy.
Good morning to everyone, but especially to all the wombats, for today is their special day!
To celebrate International Wombat Day, here is an engraving of a wombat from 'The Illustrated Natural History' (1863) by J. G. Wood.

“O Uommibatto” How the Pre-Raphaelites Became Obsessed with the Wombat
Angus Trumble on Dante Gabriel Rossetti and company’s fixation with the furry oddity that is the wombat publicdomainreview.org/essay/o-uomm...
Image- Rossetti’s frontispiece for Christina’s 'Goblin Market' #WombatDay
A young wombat being cradled in the arms of a person. The wombat has a soft, grayish fur and round, inquisitive eyes that convey a sense of curiosity. Its ears are small and rounded, and its nose is pink and slightly prominent. The background is suggesting a natural setting, which emphasizes the wombat's adorable features. The person holding the wombat is wearing a plaid shirt, and only their hands are visible, showcasing a gentle and caring embrace.
Happy World Wombat Day!
I didn't know that the 22 of October is Internatonal World Wombat Day. The Photo was taken 2020 at the Majors Creek Wombat Refuge #WombatDay #internationalWombatDay #22October
