Welcome, Br’er Lion! And Your Fishing Pole Too.

Posted by: Amelia // Category: Shameless Promotion, Failed Attempts at Looking Reputable // 8:12 am

I am happy to officially announce that we have received the fourth, and final, Wren’s Nest Critter T-Shirt. Brer Lion, welcome to the club.

Sporting a lovely shade of tangerine, with Brer Lion’s call of “Warrah Yarrah Garrah Tarrah” prominently displayed on the back, the newest t-shirt is perfect for all types of shirt-wearers. Though especially fishermen and basket carriers, who can best identify with Brer Lion’s accessories.

(Professional! Models!)

We’ve got a lot of these lovely shirts. Which is great, because we like selling things to visitors that have made-up words on the back.

But lately we’ve noticed a bit of an issue with our visitors: we don’t have any.

When we were getting plenty of visitors, the shirts were flying off the figurative shelves. But no visitors means no buyers, which leads to us considering asking our docents Jeri and Nannie to make a celebratory quilt out of the shirts (it would be so vibrant!), just so they have something to do.

If you know any folks (or perhaps are a folk yourself) who have said, “Man! I really need to get over to the Wren’s Nest!”, I say this: tell them do it already. Come on. Please?

Plus (unless this works way better than I could have ever hoped for), odds are, you’ll have the place to yourself. Like a famous person!

Do I sound pitiful? Sad? Like a weenie? I hope so; pity visits are totally what I’m shooting for. See you soon!

    I want to order all four! Do you mail the shirts or do I need to come to the Wren’s Nest? It has been a couple of years since I visited.

    Emily–you can come to the Wren’s Nest, or we can send them your way. Your pick. The shirts are either free (if you read five Brer Rabbit stories, and then fill out the form on the merchandise page) or $15 per. You can read 20 stories and collect all four.
