These year table dolls are based on the heartwarming story 

"The Root Children" by Sibylle von Olfers.

You can find a tutorial for their base here

DIY - Faerie Nest Wall Hanging

.....soft whispers and faerie light....

... an ancient miracle....

... awakening...

Simply fill the bottom or top lit of a camembert cheese box

 with a firm layer of wool (fleece). 

You can create two bases out of one camembert box.

Prick with a felting needle to make a firm batt of it 

and attach it to the lit with some hot glue.

Then use the felting needle to attach wool curls, 

mohair for the centre and a small Faerie egg.

Decorate the nest with found feathers, branches and angelina fiber,

For wall hanging prick a hole into the backside.

... a faerie nest...

... made with love....

...love will shine from it...

Woodland Faeries

After a long break I've finally started to create again 

and it feels just wonderful.

For these lovely woodland faeries
I have used wool balls for their heads instead of wooden beads. 

It is so much easier to shape their hair and hats this way. 

I feel like Vidal Sassoon when I'm modeling their hair with my felting needle :)
