Felting - Raving Rabbid

Even though I have some UFP's I have finished another felting project which is just as cool.

We had a dress a sprout competition at work. Really, it's the best thing to do with a sprout - other than bake it wrapped in bacon so that the lovely bacon fat disguises all the horribleness of the taste of sprout......hmmm bacon......sorry where was I? Oh yes, I dressed my sprout as a Raving Rabbid with a plunger gun. Unfortunately everyone thought my gun was Santa's boot and while I can see what they are getting at it was displayed in front of a background that showed the plunger gun peoples.

Anywho here he is in all his glory:

I'll be back

He is languishing in a box at the moment as the sprout has since rotten and been buried with full honours. So I now need to make him a felt head so I can have him guard my room at night when all the things that come alive while I sleep roam the land.

sad and lifeless not to mention a bit googly eyed :(

Felting - my new craft interest

So, one of the crafts which has been distracting me from my little old blog is felting. It's pretty amazing actually as it's sculpting with wool and it''s not as hard as it looks.

I bought a woolpets kit of a bumble bee and was quite impressed with the fact that it didn't take that long to create and well it actually looks like a bumble bee and not some type of mutated beastie.

Here are some photos:

hmmm......nectar

here's a close up

I'm in the process of felting an eyeball & a brain but at the moments that have become UFP's (UnFinished Projects) which is a little sad because they will be awesome when they are finished.
