Swirls, Flowers, & Bees !

 I made these just yesterday...

 ...while sitting outdoors watching grandchildren play in the summer sunshine.

 My husband's honeybees were buzzing around the flowers as birds fluttered here and there plucking berries from the bushes. A happy summer day that inspired the cheerful bees and flowers I needle-felted onto the woolen balls , all crafted using the wool fleece of my Jacob Sheep.

These wool felted balls are for sale in my Etsy * shop .   ($20.00 for the set of 5 )

Felted Wool Balls, crafted by me using the wool fleece of my flock of Jacob Sheep.Sold! Thank-you.

The wool is dyed by me,

fashioned into balls, felted,

and then I needle-felt designs on them. These wool balls make great children's toys, cat toys, dryer balls, and are also delightful simply displayed in a basket or bowl. You can purchase them as a set of three by clicking here.*

New Felted Wool Balls in my Shop

These wool felted balls are so much fun to make.

I make them from the wool fleece of my flock of Jacob sheep.

I dye the wool and after felting the balls, I then needle-felt cheery designs on them.

All of these balls are at least as big as a tennis ball, most are bigger,

My cats love to play with wool felted balls. Some of the balls have a jingle in them. If you spray the balls with catnip the cats really have a good time.These wool balls are also good toys for children, they can be used as dryer balls too. Just toss them into the dryer with a load of wet clothes. No fabric softener, or softener sheets are necessary ~ the balls keep the clothes separated, fluff up the clothes, and prevent static cling. Best of all, they can be used over and over again...and played with by the cat & kids in between laundry loads. Each set of 3 balls sells for $15.00, shipping is included in the price within the U.S. If you're interested in purchasing any wool felted balls click HERE*. Thank-you for taking time to check out my Spotted Sheep Shop !

Valentine Sheep & Snowballs

February is the month of love, celebrated especially on Valentine's Day. I have given my little sheep silver hearts that say "Love", but really, love is never out of season. I like these little adornments so much I am going to add silver hearts to my sheep throughout the year. These sheep can be purchased by clicking here *.
I have also been making wool balls from the fleece of my Jacob sheep. These and the wee little sheep are my biggest sellers at bazaars and can be used or displayed throughout the year. The wool balls are perfect for the dryer. Toss them in with a load of wet clothes, no fabric softener sheets needed. The wool ball will keep your laundry separated, fluffed up, and static free. Even better, they can be used over and over again. When not in use for laundry, they also make great cat or baby toys, and even look good placed in a basket or bowl on the table.To purchase these click here * .

Since the storm last month I have been busy cleaning up outside, we have a years' worth of cleaning for all the destruction the ice storm left behind. This leaves me little time indoors, but I spend all my spare time spinning wool into yarn, making more little sheep , weaving and locker-hooking rugs, and having fun crafting new items the wool inspires. Thank-you again for taking a few moments to view my Spotted Sheep Shop !
