A fairy village & a giveaway

I’ve gone wood burning crazy! In a good way (at least I think so!). And now I seem to have a whole village, complete with unfinished residents.

As soon as I had them all cut out Master D started playing with them and telling me who lived at which house 🙂 but finally I have most of the doors sanded, painted and finished (for ‘how’ see here).

Some of the doors and gnomes have homes to go to at Christmas, and we will be keeping some favourites for play.

I’ve swapped one with the lovely Marie from Softearth’s World. And super exciting I have sold four!! A big thank you to the lovely people who bought them 🙂

Swapped
Sold!

 But I think its time to let another two leave the nest 🙂

So, if you’d like part of my fairy village to come your way please leave me a comment. For an additional entry follow me 🙂 I’ll post the winner on Christmas Eve.

Warm wishes, Kelly

A pixie and a Christmas fairy

Now I understand why everyone loves needle felting!! I gave it a go for the first time yesterday and I just love the results (obviously I need to work on my ability to do faces though…) And the process is very therapeutic too.

Here is my first attempt – a pixie 🙂

I think he is adorable and Master D can’t stop playing with him! He is sitting in front of one of my unfinished ‘pixie’ door creations because Master D said this is where he lives.

And for my second attempt I made a Christmas fairy following this tutorial.

I think she will look lovely on our Christmas tree. Before she takes her place there I might add some embellishments though.

So now I have another craft ‘addiction’ 🙂

Warm wishes, Kelly
