A Note on Assembly and Use: This incredibly versatile piece is designed specifically to be a spine hugger! To display it on your bookshelf, simply slide the back tab right between two of your favorite books so the centipede beautifully hugs the spines. You can also skip using the tab entirely, as this piece makes a perfectly good standalone shelf sitter. If you prefer to display it on your fridge or a metal cart, you can easily turn it into a magnet! Please note that magnets are not included with your purchase. However, there are little holes on the back of each spine hugger that will fit 6x2mm magnets. Just add a drop of superglue and press them in.
Materials and Care: This item is printed using PLA, a strong and lightweight plastic commonly used in 3D printing. While durable for display, PLA is not intended for high heat. Avoid exposure to temperatures above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, as heat may cause softening or warping.
My Handmade Promise: Every single item in my shop is 3D printed right here in my own home and packed with love by me. To make sure you are getting a truly authentic piece of magic, please only purchase directly through my official shop!
A Note on 3D Printing: Please note that colors may vary slightly from what you see on screen due to differences in filament and lighting. Because each piece is 3D printed, minor variations such as subtle layer lines may be present. These are a natural part of the process and a reminder that each item is individually made for you, not mass produced.
