I WON THE MILLIPEDE SCARF! 3rd place in the entofashion at #Ento25 (and the one I had been not-secretly eying for the whole conference. He's reversable! (Kindly provided by @rovinghouse.bsky.social)
Also picked up a few pins from @rovinghouse.bsky.social ( @pinkuscottage.bsky.social : they liked the giant sea isopod I had from you. Left the backing card from one of pins with them)
And the scarf itself omfg I had no idea what the design was, I was delighted to see the segments when I opened the box BUT SEEING THE LEGS ON THE OTHER SIDE.... They saw their chance and they took it and I couldn't be happier. The scarf IS a millipede!!!
Millipedes were my start into keeping inverts and really breaking down my fear of spiders, so when I learned about @rovinghouse.bsky.social's millipede bug box I had to give it a try. I was NOT READY FOR HOW GOOD THIS BOX WAS OMFG (Rat patch and spider pins not part of box, but one pin was freebie!)
When I was a kid, I collected & pinned bugs like Pokémon. Until I learned that one of the pinned insects was threatened, and the guilt ended that hobby for me. Now I can bring back that love for bugs in the form of enamel pin collecting through the Bug Box by @rovinghouse.bsky.social
Everything from stationary, puzzles, and drinkware to our personal favorites: pinning and field supplies! ✨🐜Check it out: buff.ly/3OZX4Cl @leafhopper.bsky.social @rovinghouse.bsky.social @natural-history.bsky.social @entsocamerica.bsky.social
