Bossy's Feltworks Giveaway

Pin It Now! Here is a little fact about me that few folks know...are you ready? It's that I LOVE sheep! I do, I love to look at them, be around them, and learn from them (what not to do). They are fabulously stupid creatures.

Sheep and shepherds are mentioned 247 times in the Bible. I love the comparison between the sheep and their shepherd and us and God. It's a very interesting study, I encourage you to read more into it. Anyway, I love sheep!

At our house we have a few wooden figures of sheep, a few ceramic standing sheep and the focal point of our living room is one large painting of sheep standing in a pasture. When I ran across Bossy's Feltworks Etsy Shop I knew I found a shop for me! Even if you're not crazy about sheep like me I'm sure you'll adore her work!

Here's a short look at Bossy's Feltworks beginning:
In the Spring of 2006, three Orcas Islanders gathered the necessary ingredients: a heap of wool, copious quantities of imagination, and four enthusiastic product-testers under the age of five (as well as three supportive though slightly bewildered husbands). And so the adventure in wool -- washing, picking, carding, dyeing and finally felting -- began!

The premise of Bossy's Feltworks is to bring natural, unique and handmade toys to children and adults alike. They take great pride in being a homegrown business.

Meet Bossy, he's among many other sheep that donate a part of themselves for this work. : )

Bossy's Feltworks is proud to have been featured in Feb/March 2009's edition of Small Town Living.

If you want to learn more about the process these ladies go through take a look over here.

Here are a few examples of their beautiful work:

You love them, right?

What a fun mobile!

For more info on any particular item just click on the picture. Several items I listed above were sold items and not items that are for sale in their store right now but just mention what it was and they would love to duplicate it for you. Have an idea for a feltwork project? Tell them about it and see if your dreams can become a reality.

The sheep with the black head looks very bossy & definitely in charge of her little round green world. It's like the sheep in "The Little Prince" has escaped from the box and taken over the asteroid (and what happened to the Prince I don't dare speculate!) -- or maybe the sheep got kicked off onto his own asteroid because he was too bossy. But actually I prefer the sweet-looking white sheep with the pink ears -- a better starting place for someone withough prior sheep-care experience.
