A charming nod to the beloved Lenox Spice Village, this Basil House Needlepoint Canvas is filled with nostalgic cottage details, sweet pastel accents, and all the collectible charm that has made these little houses loved for decades.
This canvas is part of an ongoing Spice Village series. Stitch the Basil House on its own or collect each house to create a full needlepoint village display.
A little extra charm: the word basil is often connected to the Greek word basilikon, meaning “royal.” Others trace the name to Greek mythology and the basilisk — a half-lizard, half-dragon creature with a fatal stare. Basil was thought to be a magical cure against the basilisk’s look, breath, or bite.
