Felt Flowers

Here are my felt flowers. I just love working with felt. These flowers come in different colors. If you are looking for a specific color (for favors or an event, ie, a wedding) contact me and I will work with you!

Set of Seven

Here are sets of seven. It is very rare that I duplicate sets. I don't like to feel like a factory!

Trio Set

I have so many new designs but i am uploading the most favored sets/designs.
This is the trio set.
Enjoy!

I have been away too long!!! But I'm back :)

It has been almost a year since my last post. I just had my third baby in July and I am ready to get back in the scene.

In 2010, I mainly focused in participating as many craft fairs as I could. It took a toll on me. I am now focusing in getting my accessories in stores. I have so much fun meeting the people I am selling my crafts to that I mainly focused on personally selling my items at craft shows/fairs.

But I realize that if I want to turn my hobby into a business I must give up a little control. There is definitely less creating - my favorite part, and more focus on marketing, taking pictures, and creating line sheets - just to name a few. I definitely need to learn to manage my time. I have 14 weeks to learn to do this. That's when my maternity leave is up.

Wish me luck!!!!
