ahhh, the smell of wool. i am planning for some christmas tree ornament needle felting in the next few weeks. one of my favorite seasonal crafts of the year. i remember my aunt sybil always making beautiful handmade christmas balls using tiny beads and ribbon and giving them as gifts to eagerly awaiting family members. each a lovely, one-of-a-kind work of art. i still have the treasured ornaments she made for our family. and so every year as the christmas making season approaches, i think of her and how very special each of her unique handmade ornaments was and still is. and how i, too, am passing on the tradition of handmade to others...
look for some colorful felted ornaments in my waldorfmama etsy shop soon!
