What’s Inside Tier 2?

Wild Things Mail Club by Terri Wilhelm

A Little More to the Story

Each month, Wild Things Mail Club Tier 2 members receive the next chapter of our ongoing woodland story, along with a few handmade treasures that belong to the world of the story.

Alongside the illustrated story card, you’ll find a little piece of ephemera inspired by that month’s character, setting, or adventure. A field note, a keepsake, a tiny bit of correspondence—each one is designed to feel as though it has wandered out of the story and into your mailbox.

I love these little details because they make the story feel more real. They’re not necessarily things you need… they’re simply little things to discover, keep, and enjoy.

Think of them as tiny souvenirs from Acorn Hollow.

Each month’s mailing is a small invitation to slow down, follow along, and step a little further into the story.

Hello December

Hello December! Lots of nature experiences and inspirations this month for my sketchbook art and storytelling.

A few years ago, I created a daily doodle project where I set up a monthly grid, illustrated a seasonal border, hand-lettered the month and days, and filled in the squares with nature doodles and tiny illustrations.

It’s one of my all-time favorite personal illustration projects I’ve ever done. The best part is I frequently refer to these pages for inspiration. I’m planning to use these little spot illustrations to create larger illustrations and prompts for my character design development, vignettes and storytelling.

There are so many wonderful stories to tell from this month of doodles!
