Cute Bunnies

Friday, September 26, 2008



While I was browsing through some blogs today and dropping my ECs I noticed these cute bunnies.

These bunnies are felted brooches, and I think they are adorable.

Technique:

My critters are sculpted through a process called Needle Felting. Needle felting is the process of taking raw wool roving and using a special barbed needle to sculpt it into shape. The sculpting is done by poking the wool fibers thousands of times until they interlock and felt together. This process is extremely time consuming.

I strive to make each miniature needle felted animal as realistic and detailed as possible. Each sculpture is an original One of a Kind (OOAK) work of art, created by artist K. Turple. Each creation is firmly felted and quite solid. I am confident you will be very pleased with your purchases, as I would never sell something that was not up to the standard of quality I strive to maintain. Every order will be carefully packaged to ensure a safe arrival, and comes from a smoke free home. Please remember that each needle felted sculpture is a delicate work of art and not intended to be a toy for young children. Each order will come with a signed Certificate of Authenticity, which will include a photograph of the miniature needle felted animal.

Hi

Thanks for the info on making these cuties. Being a sculptor myself I was interested in how they were done. Actually, I see these pieces as sculptures more than anything else - more than just handicraft. They are great crtitters!
