Today I am....

Well today I am kitten sitting. The kitten was very timid yesterday but took a shine to my collie and curled up to sleep, on the chair with her. He was wary of my wee jack Russell, but this morning he decided to pounce on her. By heck she didn't know what to do so got chased round the living room by the kitten, now she won't go more than two steps from me. Kitten of course thinks it's hilarious so keeps sniffing her as she tries to hide. Fortunately being a kitten is so tiring and he's fallen asleep so my wee dog gets a rest .

Hello from fairy hollow

A little bit about me

I am Christine, owner/maker at fairy hollow creations. I am 31 I live with the man of my life and my two doggies. Last year I had a fall I broke a bone in my back. This lead to me being off work for some months, so I started crafting. I started with crochet, then needlefelting, and dabbling in a few other crafts along the way.

What I make

I mainly make needlefelted animals gnomes/Faries/pixies and scenes. All my creations start off in the form on wool roving which I then felt by hand with different size barbed needles, this tangles the fibres together, I then shape them and add details.

Starting my shop

I decided in January to start my own shop on Etsy and facebook. I did this as I had had a lot of requests to make specific items. So after some research on selling venues I decided that Etsy was for me as it promoted handmade items I liked the feel of it and it seems a good fit for me.

I will also be attending some craft fairs although how many depends on my mobility as I still struggle with walking and standing for prolonged periods of time.

So anyways that's me and what I do if you have any questions feel free to contact me links below to my Etsy shop and Facebook page.
