nerd farm

This is where the wool that I use is born. I went to handpick some fun colors for my nerds at my friend Maddy's wool mill. Snapped a few pictures of the process and thought I'd share. Enjoy!

needle whaaa?



A lot of you have been inquiring how my little creatures come about. Above is an image of a ball of wool that I would start with, and a felting needle that I use to shape my art. Using this single barbed needle, I compact the wool by repeatedly jabbing the needle into the fibres to create wooly sculptures. I will work at getting a video up sometime, but for now - I am busy needle felting more creatures!
Thanks for visiting!

I've been busy making this fun mobile to hang over your baby's crib. You can also just hang it over your bed as well (hey, I'm not judging). This item will be available for purchase on my shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/needlenerd very soon! More mobiles in the works! Thanks for looking!
