I had a miscellaneous piece of wet felting that I didn't know what to do with so it just sat waiting patiently. I also had a few needle felted owls that needed a place to call home. I embroidered a few blue beetles and wrapped thread around a few beads.
Needle felted a couple of caterpillars and wrapped more beads
and added a butterfly on a tree
and voila, my owls are happy with their whimsical home :)
We spotted this Sharp-shinned Hawk in the back yard no doubt looking for a tasty sparrow or chickadee. It was gorgeous to see but it eventually flew away empty clawed.
Have a most beautiful day!!!
Your wee little owls are SO cute!!!! They look like they're having a picnic (and if the teddy bears can, why can't owls?).
ReplyDeleteA great menagerie so soft and cute.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little felted scene!

Isn't is amazing how a piece of material can call out: Use me like this, and then all falls into place! You have created a wonderful world based on a piece of felt that was just 'hanging around'.
ReplyDeletethe owls look very much at home with all your beautifully created creatures, a lovely piece Jenny
ReplyDeleteWhimsically gorgeous Jeannette. xx

Soooooo cute Jenny! Have you ever considered making a shadowbox scene like this? I love little shadowboxes with tiny little worlds inside :)
ReplyDeleteOMG! Your little felted scene looks amazing ;)
ReplyDeleteSooo cute!!!
I so wish I could work with felt (allergy), especially when I see such a nice and fun creation like your owls and their new home!
ReplyDeleteVery cute, Jenny. I'll miss a wet felting class at the Embroiderers Guild at the end of this month - would have liked to have done it, but will be away. I enjoy your bird photography.
ReplyDeleteWow this is lovely woodland display, I love the vibrant blue beetles!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great piece, Jeannette! I think you had a lot of fun with this one!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet scene! Love the beetles.
