The 3-long day public appearance at the 37th Acadia Christmas Craft Expo was a great success!

Wool is Fun. Warm. Durable. Natural. Biodegradable. Anti-Microbial. Stain-Resistant. Local. 

+++++ Wool is Eco-Friendly! +++++

I am looking forward to work on more custom orders too!

LEGO FOR MATT



My children's godfather is having his 30th birthday a few days ago.

Just earlier, we had the Halloween costume party which he made the LEGO outfits himself.

Thus, I think it would be a fun way to create another LEGO head by applying needle felting.

Here you go!

EAST MEET WEST GREETINGS

Since I am working on the East-Meet-West theme,

I have designed a set of 6 Chinese-English greeting flat/greeting cards & gift tags.

All of them are one-of-a-kind illustrations drawn by a pen & a ruler (& by myself of course).

  Here, you will have a sneak peek of my initial drawing (still in progress).

From bottom right clockwise:

Love
Joy
Hope
Peace 和平
Faith
Bless

These greeting cards are not only good for Christmas season, but anytime throughout the year!

They are available to purchase at the NOV. 18-20 Acadia Christmas Craft Expo in Wolfville, NS.

I hope you like them too!

CHINESE GOOD LUCK KNOT

GOOD LUCK symbol is very important to both Eastern & Western world.

These are Chinese traditional Good Luck knots made with spun silk cords.

For an artistic touch, wool felt beans & other pearl look-a-like beans are added.

Some of them I needle felt Chinese character such as 美 "beautiful" & "auspicious".


Just before I needle felt the wool bean on the classic black & red combination...


Another example of the Chinese Good Luck Knot necklace & brooch...
