snow folk in the shop

 

Since a few of you asked, I decided to make a few snow folk to put in my shop.

Just five, but they're in my shop for viewing and will go "live" at noon central time today.

 

Happy Monday, all.

Snow folk have been cropping up under the poplar and pine.

Each is made of felted wool balls in three sizes that I sewed to a wooden button (gifted to me by Cheryl at handcrafted travellers).  Their little arms are tendrils from a Virginia Creeper vine and their hats are acorn caps.

 

I liked how they each had a different posture when I sewed them together so I didn't bother to needle them together.  Their noses and faces, yes, their posture, no.  Each one was so different that I felt they needed to have a little photo session.

 

Clearly I need to get out more.

 

These are headed off to some friends and I hope they get a giggle out of them too.  

 

Happy almost-weekend, everyone!
