I fell in love...sweetest little babies...I'll give you a few more photos later. Here's the story...I wanted to make a poodle and a lamb with curly hair. I checked all over the internet and didn't see anything I liked. So I looked locally...I found a wonderful lady who gave me contacts nearby. The first one that replied didn't live TO far away, I explained what I wanted and she thought she had it...so Stacey and I made this trip to Yamhill...She has THE MOST WONDERFUL WOOL.I have ever seen (not that I have seen very much) But it has the tensie tiny curls...so of course I bought some...then out to the barn we went...a bit muddy, but look what was there...newborn babies!!! This one was my favorite...we had soooo much fun and we got a real education.
On the way home...we stopped at a goodwill...I left...then ran back in...I had to get these "pearls" I laughted when I bought them...I was a tad embarressed.lol. They are SOOOO tacky...I told the young girl that I DID NOT entend on wearing them...But now...what do I do with them??? right now I think I'll take them apart and put them in a clear dish...I was thinking of painting a rose on the BIG ones. If you have any ideas...please pass them my way. Have a wonderful weekend, and thank you for all the wonderful comments on my creations, they are dearly appreciated!!!It's been a "PINK" week for me, so please check my posts for the week.

I would have bought those pearls too! I have a jar full of them in one of my bathrooms. I love how the light bounces off them - especially candlelight.
ReplyDeleteThat little tea cup is sweet!
What a precious picture of the babies! Can't wait to see what you do with the pearls. I am sure it will be lovely!
ReplyDeleteCan you make some hat pins out of the big ones? Ahhh, pin cushion in the cup with a painted rose hat pin! Sorry if it sounds silly, it's late & I need to go to bed instead of reading blogs!
ReplyDeleteps I love the pictures of the babies!
ReplyDeleteOoh, did I once hear you can 'dye' pearls with tea? Maybe that's 'cultured' pearls...but, who knows? They might be really pretty. I can also see them incorporated (one or two at a time) into your creations. Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday and Happy Valentine's Day Laurie!

Aren't baby-anythings just too too cute? Baby cats, rabbits, horses, ducks and sheep?! Love them all. I am in total love with your needle felting! Your creations are amazing and the fact that you just learned this really makes me mad - Bah Humbug on you! You make the rest of us look like TOTAL slackers - which, for the most part, we are.
ReplyDeleteLove ya kiddo! Have a great Sunday :-)
Can't wait to see what you do with the pearls. Happy Valentines Day....and hope your Pink Saturday was lovely. P.S. I love the pincushions..the bird, kitty and poodles you've shown below. They're just as sweeet as can be.
ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday, oh, and ♥Valentine's Day♥ too!! What a lovely sharing today. Thanks so much!
ReplyDeletePS: A little late. Spent the day and evening yesterday with my little grandsons. Nothing like three, handsome men for distraction!
You are making me crazy with all those ADORABLE felted babies. I want all of them - what am I going to do??? And your latest tea cup/bird pincushion is so sweet.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures of the babies - I love sheep, along with cows, horses, dogs, cats, elephants...you get the idea.
What a sweet lamb and the pearl....!! Just lovely!
