Hand Needle Felted Boxes and Containers




This is from my wild rose collection. I just love these little flowers that still grow in our Island hedgerows.  I created this piece using both wet felting and dry needle felting techniques and I hand blended cream and pink wools to give a pretty swirly effect.  It is fully lined with vintage silk and velvet in a dusky pink so that your jewellery and trinkets do not catch in the wool felt. I have secured the lid with a hinge and embellished the top with three beautiful roses and twisted stems. It is secured by a twisty loop and a handmade button. This little pot will look great on a dressing table or shelf. 



This beautiful mushroom container can store your secret things and makes a wonderful ornament with its Autumn scene around the base. You can see a little rabbit munching the plants and some mushrooms and berries. The lid has a lovely grey squirrel holding an acorn, 'mmm should I eat it or store it, decisions decisions' !!!!! 



This cute little mushroom container can store your secret things and makes a beautiful little ornament. I created it using a dry needle felting technique with hand blended wool in tones of cream and brown with a green leafed acorn.
