Description Generally if there is Ghibli fanart out there, its Spirited Away or Totoro (sometimes you get a Calcifer)
However, you almost NEVER see Princess Mononoke fan art.
Well "eff that shit" I say!
This is for a swap on swap-bot, we were supposed to make a Kodama shrine from a matchbox.
For those of you who dont practice Shinto or have never seen Princess Mononoke, a Kodama is a spirit that lives in a tree. These trees are marked by shimenawa rope. (If you've seen Totoro, youll know what Im talking about)

Anydoodle,
these are made from glow-in-the-dark sculpey (WORD)
and the matchbox has a little screenshot from the film in the background, and its painted green. The forest is made from flock and such from my husband's model train landscaping things. I made a little tree out of a button and flock for the back with a shimenawa rope.

note: I dont know what the kanji says, for all I know it says "kill whitey" and I dont care, its just for show.

I love that movie so much. the first time I seen it I like, peed when I saw the kodama. then I said "this movie will not be complete unless a litte kodama appears and bobbles its head." and it did. and I peed again.
