Needle Felted Jewelry

I taught myself (and then LOTS of others) how to needle felt in October '08. It was something I was interested in learning for a long time, and well, I was not disappointed by it once I taught myself. Felting is really fun, and I think almost everything in this world is cuter and more fun when it is miniature and fuzzy. I made all my friends ornaments for christmas, and they went over really well. I figured that if they were adorable, how cute would truly tiny critters be? And that's when I tried making some birdie earrings, oh man, are they cute. In addition to those, I've added polka dot balls, cupcakes, and even broccoli. Yum tiny broccoli. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Felted Bird Earrings .... $44.oo

I was beside myself I was so excited about these earrings as I made them. A pair of matching inch long felted birdies to dangle from your ears! I kept my first pair for myself (that's the red pair, if you are interested, I can make you a pair just like 'em though!) but it was pretty hard to choose between it and the blue pair, or the brown... you get the idea.

They are hung from silver hooks, and they are made to swivel around and around the silver wire they are strung on. That way you never know where they might be facing. But don't worry, all of the bird is cute. They are paired with a complimentary colored bead for added pizzazz. These hang about two and a half inches down, those are nice, big hoops!

 

 

 

     

Cupcake Earrings .... $40.oo

Delicious tiny cupcakes (under a half inch!) to dangle from your ears! These tasty goodies even have tiny glass bead sprinkles, that's how good they are. Made from dyed wood roving, they come in three flavors, two of them are chocolate, of course, and one yellow cake for you non-chocolate eaters out there!

They are about three inches long altogether. They dangle on sterling silver chain from sterling silver hooks, and are as light as a feather. Perfect for your sweetie!

 
     
     

Polka Dot Ball Earrings .... $32.oo

When I got tired of making tiny matching birds (you have no idea how hard it is to get them to be the same size!) I started felting balls. They were a mite bit plain, so I added some polka dots, and well, that was the right thing to do. They make me think of a day at the beach, or the big top, or the zany teacher from the yellow schoolbus books. Perhaps you need a pair to remind you of something?

Pick from the list of colors below, or make up a custom pair just for you (just be sure to pick "other" from the drop down menu, and then type in the custom colors )! I'm pretty sure I can accommodate you, I have ALOT of colors of wool roving just dying to be made into something! The felt balls are about 3/4 of an inch wide, and light as a feather!

 
     

Teeny Veggie Earrings .... $32.oo

Yep really, teeny fuzzy veggies! I've got broccoli, mushrooms, and carrots now, who knows what might happen next! You can even email me with your veggie ideas, heck even fruit or other fun foods! Email me, and we'll see what we can come up with okay?

 

 
   

Butterfly Earrings .... $38.oo

Super Springy, I know, but even in winter you need a warm weather pick me up, don't you? Sweet, fluffy felted butterflies are skewered onto sterling silver wire hooks. It seems kind of mean, but I swear they don't feel the metal skewers! These large hoops dangle delightfully from your ears!

 

 
     

Friendly Monster Earrings .... $40.oo

Who's the little monster? Aww, lookit their little teeth! No two monster earring sets are alike. They will come with some combination of: horns, teeth, beaks, wings, arms, googlie eyes, and beads. They most likely will have charms dangling, and hang from large round hooks. They will always have sterling silver hooks unless you'd like something else!

The monsters hang between 2 and 3 inches in length, and are always super light! Enjoy!

Let me know below what sorts of colors you would like with your monsters. And if there is a particular attribute you'd like them to have (teeth, googlie eyes, etc.).

 

 
     

Felted Goldfish Earrings .... $28.oo

Makes me think of fishy crackers... especially the first pair I ever made, which were cracker orange. Cute and fun, and great for kids because of their lightness and smallness. They really are about the size of a fishy cracker!
