I can’t believe it’s already December!

I’ve been working on some soldered holiday ornaments, here’s a few made with vintage children’s illustrations. I particularly love the bunny, the back of it says “snow bunny” 🙂

isn’t this Santa illustration great? The back says “I believe in Santa Claus”:

Get Felt Up!

Sorry, just couldn’t resist that title 😉

Continuing my work with felt here’s a couple of holiday ornament I’ve made. They are all felt that have been blanket stitched around the edges with embroidery floss.

This first is a Snowman ornament, he’s stuffed with poly fill, I made him a broom using a wooden dowel and felt. I especially love the nose, I rolled orange felt into a cone shape and glued it on.

This next one is a felt mitten, it’s the perfect size to hold a gift card or tiny gift, use as a tag on a present or just hang on the tree.

I’ve made several different colors of mittens and snowmen in different color hats and scarves, they’ll all be available in my Etsy shop.
