I know lately it seems like the blog is just one big advertisement...

for my etsy shop.

But I'm really, really excited about the work I'm doing. Today I'm sharing just the pictures and not any links. That's my way to reconcile my desire to share the finished products without living my life as a freakin' infomercial. :)
(and if you really want to learn more about my work or buy something there are links in the widget off to the right on the blog's home page)

Rainbow Gnomes - it's a very simple Waldorf inspired design for a gnome. I wanted something smaller and simpler and this is what I came up with. These guys are about 3" tall.

Angel Cherub - he/she's loosely needle felted and I used simple thin wire to create his/her halo - stands about 2 3/4" tall











Santa Claus - he's more detailed and took me about an hour and a half to needle felt. I listened to episodes from season 5 of the tv show 24 with the Hubster while I worked on him. I'm doing that a lot lately - listening to movies or shows and needle felting. It seems like such a waste of time to just *watch*. Oh, and he's about 3" tall. Both the angel and the Santa could easily be converted to tree ornaments with the addition of a ribbon hanger in the back (like I did with the snowman)

About Me

My Photo
A 40 something mama meandering through life with an eclectic 20 year old boy-man (the boy), a 7 year old girl (big girl) who is a ball of lightening, and a 3 year old girl (baby girl) who brightens our lives with her smiles. I'm grounded by my 40 something husband and partner (the hubster) whose quirky mannerisms brighten my days.

I've been a single mama, married mama, divorced mama, career mama, SAHM, and WAHM. There was a short time of my life when I wasn't a mama, but that was a LONG time ago!

I hold an AA, BS, and MA and most say I'm wasting them by devoting my intellectual capabilities and energy in the nurture of the wee ones that I've been entrusted to raise, but there is nothing else I'd rather be doing these days. :)

I love hearing from readers, so please share your thoughts and leave comments, too!
