Green Thumb NOT Required!

These beauties don't need a light-filled window. You don't have to change the water in their vase or trim their stems. They don't turn brown or drop their petals. You just have to...admire them...and the talented etsy artisans who made them!

Fond of Felt?


Exploring the shops on etsy has introduced me to all the fascinating ways contemporary artisans are using an old material, felt. I love that objects that are usually hard and solid, like vases and bowls, are now made of something soft and light. I have begun to use felted wool beads in my necklaces, handmade by others, but if I get the time...I am going to learn how to felt (right after I learn how to make risotto)!

My newest etsy treasury (I've Never FELT Like This Before) features just a small sampling of creative, colorful felt creations.
