mini felted paintings available

Just a quick post today to let you know I am trying to be organised for Christmas are you?

I have started making some  gifts for my own family and am beginning to make some affordable gifts to go in my shop. As well as the butterfly brooches I am trying to get some mini felts made. They are only £18.00 each and make a really unusual and original gift for a friend or family member.

The first one has already gone to a customer in Australia but here are a couple of the others available and I hope to have more soon.

Stormy weather

Recently many of my readers in the UK will have suffered floods and gale force winds. These are two of my felts which reflect our weather.

Last week our 36 x 12 feet shed flew over the fence and landed on our poly tunnel in the vegetable patch. Unfortunately our pigs and sheep were in it at the time. None of them were hurt but I think they were all a little shocked!

This one which I called 'stormy seas' was inspired by the gale force winds we had the previous week. They coincided with high, spring tides and the sea in nearby Aberystwyth swept most of the historic promenade away. The beach I am depicting here is where I usually walk our dogs. It is called Llanrhystud beach. The sea washed away the flood defences and flooded the fields nearby.

I am hoping that our weather will improve soon and inspire some sunny and perhaps floral artwork! 

affordable felt art

I have just discovered some really cute canvases sized 8 x 8 inches which is 20 x 20 cm. They are big enough for me to make a decent landscape on but small enough to be affordable at $39.00 or £25.00. I have listed the one pictured below and am working on another one. The new one shows a landscape with a washing line and a patchwork quilt hanging out to dry. When it is complete I will show you.
