Giant paper roses

I'm making a sign at work which measures 8 x 4 feet, in other words it's huge!  Did you know June is Rose month?  I didn't, until I had a request from the floral department to create a giant sign for it.  So off I went dreaming up something specials.  I was going to draw the roses but then I remembered seeing a tutorial about how to make paper roses.  I ended up taking the basic idea but changing it making up my own as I worked on getting them to look to my liking.  I ended up spray painting them and I must say I'm pretty happy with the result.  Plus I feel good about the fact I recycled a bunch of paper which are old sign request forms which ended up being perfect for making these.  Here is a picture of a couple of them.  I've made a bunch more and made some leaves as well.  These are actually so very easy to make.  I keep forgetting to take pictures when I'm making them so I can make up a tutorial for those of you who want to make some.  If you are interested in such a tutorial let me know and I can create one.

Beautiful flowers and a baby mouse in a pumpkin house

Working on making some more floral brooches for the shop and the market.  I love putting these flowers together, so much fun and so easy to make.



Made another little critter house ... I had made this little mouse first to use with the lavender house I had made earlier but he was a little too dark to go with that one so I made a white mouse to go with the lavender house and ended up making a pumpkin house for this little guy!  Found the perfect colors so he would stand out more.  He will be up for sale in my shop in a little bit although he's so darn cute laying in his little white nest inside his house I want to keep him! Here is the link to purchase him:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/101047783/needle-felted-baby-mouse-with-crocheted

There's a mouse in the house!

Ok, so I'm still having fun making these little play huts.  This time I made an itty bitty white mouse with cute pink ears and red eyes.  She comes with the softest little pink blanket which fits inside her little house and makes it a perfect little nest for her to hide in.  More info if you click on this link:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/100783417/needle-felted-white-baby-mouse-in which will take you to my shop where she is up for sale.
