  •  
  • Felting needles have tiny barbs on the end that push the wool down every time you poke it.
  • I use wool batts for the bodies of my animals because it felts very firm and smooth.
  • These alpaca locks add great touches to my little animals.
  • I use horse hair to give some of my animals whiskers.

From wool to critter: A process of magic

I discovered needle felting in the summer of 2012. I found it quite amazing that I could take raw wool and sculpt it into little animals. As an art student, I was excited to add this new technique to my skills. Needle felting is the process of compacting wool into a firm sculpture by repeatedly stabbing it with a special barbed needle, a process I like to refer to as magic. Wool is available in almost any color imaginable, and there are also many different types of wool. For example, some types of wool are best used for sculpting a flat surface while other types of wool can produce a "furry" effect. I create my animals by first making a wire "skeleton". I then begin felting over the wire. After the animal is sculpted, I can add details such as glass eyes, clay noses, or horse hair whiskers. Each animal takes many hours to fully complete. The smallest animals can be finished in a day or two, but the larger animals can take many weeks to fully complete. After each of my animals are complete, I name them and put them up for "adoption". I am excited to share my little animals with other people and I hope they can put a smile on your face!

Payment
I will accept PayPal, as well as Etsy gift cards and credit cards through direct checkout. Orders for needle felted sculptures cannot be canceled. All other orders must be canceled before they are shipped. Once they are shipped they cannot be canceled. Please note that the time frames I give for made to order items are approximations, and may not be done within that time frame. If you need the item by a specific date, I must be made aware of it so I can determine if it can be completed by that date.
Shipping
I will ship needle felted sculptures with insurance and a tracking number, as well as signature confirmation. If you do not receive your package, let me know so I can file an insurance claim and we can work together to reach a solution.

Additional policies and FAQs
I gladly accept custom orders for a loved pet or your favorite animal. Each custom order is priced on an individual basis based on the size and detail of the animal. If you would like a custom order, send me an Etsy message describing what you would like to be created and we will come to an agreement on the details. Price quotes are valid for up to one month after they are quoted. I will ask for a non-refundable down payment of 50% before I begin on your animal. Once I am finished with your animal, I will list it in my shop as a reserved listing for you. I will notify you when I do so. Custom orders must be purchased within 2 weeks of being listed, unless we come to an agreement for a set date. At the time when the two weeks is up, or the date we agreed on is up, I will list it as a regular item available for purchase by anyone and it will no longer be reserved for you.

I can also reserve an animal that you want for up to two weeks. After two weeks has passed it will no longer be reserved and will be available for everyone.

Please remember that I am willing to work with your needs, so don't be afraid to ask questions if these policies do not work for you!
