A ward against worries: Taylored Curiosities's "Worry Beans" resin anxiety relievers!

Penny Taylor (aka Taylored Curiosities) tends to explore creating art toys that address anxiety issues, a theme she maintains with her new "Worry Beans" pieces. These Autumnally inspired, acorn cap adorned sets each come with a full-size 1½-inch tall Worry Bean, which is painted with an 'aged' effect that insures no two are alike, and a diminutive version called a Worry Beanlet, which isn't quite big enough for its hat. In addition to these completely hand-sculpted pieces, you'll also receive instructions on how your Worry Bean may help you worry less, stickets, and a pin, all gift wrapped and awaiting presentation to someone you might be concerned worries too much. These are available for £6.50 (approx. $10.50) apiece in Taylored Curiosities's online shop right now, in either brown or green colors (your choice).
