Creating Unique and Customized Gifts

What is Needlefelting?

You know how wool is itchy? That’s because the fibers have little ‘hooks’ in them. The specialized needles used to needlefelt have grooves along them that catches those ‘hooks’, so when you stab the wool, it makes a knot. The more you stab the wool, the tighter the knot gets, and I can ‘mold' those knots into shapes. 

What do I needlefelt?

I use sheep wool, alpaca wool, and angora rabbit fur that is produced in New England. Sometimes I use pipecleaner/wire for the armature in the dolls. I use photo references for my creepy crawlies, cute critters, and people's beloved pets. I have also drawn and used sketches to recreate 3D figures of original characters & monsters, and, mythological creatures.

Hi, I'm Britt!

Ever since I was a child, I believed giving and receiving homemade gifts were the best because they were made from the heart. When I take a commission, I put as much time, thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and heart into the piece I’m making for you as I do for my own family and friends. Every needlefelt I make is unique and perfect for a personalized gift for you or your someone you love.
