Upcycled Recycled Felted Sweater Plush Stuffed Animals

Here are some of the latest felted wool sweater projects I've been working on. These little pocket pals fit inside the pocket of their bigger counterpart. I made some extras too.

This sweater critter is pocket-less, but still just as sweet.

Bare Winter Trees

I love to browse around Etsy looking for items to my favorites. If I had more time, I would take the time to create a lovely treasury. I started my search by looking for Garnet jewelry. My birthday is coming up this month, and garnet is my birthstone. In my search I found lots of pretty things, but several tree or branch items caught my eye.

First I went looking for items with garnets and found this stunning necklace.

Then I found these lovely earrings by

This is a very popular Etsy Seller, and for good reason, what an adorable little owl peeking out from this hollow tree:

As my search continued, I seemed to find more items with branches, trees, and twigs and my search expanded to other items. These lovely dishtowels are so pretty and wintery.
