Gosh that must be the least catchy blog post title I have ever used! But welcome to a few pictures of a recent make with a seasonal theme!
All of this is made using needle-felting. I used wool from The Felt Box and FuzzieWuzzie.
So the project is in two parts, both mainly autumn colours apart from the central characters, the Witch and Wizard.
Both characters have a familiar, the little black pumpkin kitty and the smiling fox! I used the normal needle-felted gnome style to create both the characters. Little broom stick I think is an embellishment from Tim Holtz!
I made a corner from cardboard, painted it with brown paint and then added some felt pieces to hide the workings. I wanted it to slide onto the corner of a mirror and be self-supporting and easy to use! They work a bit like photo-corners (from the olden days, lol).
I used a leaf cookie cutter as a mould for making the leaves. It was my first time, hence them being rather thick! I got better as I made more and more. The acorns are a bit bonkers but I felt I had enough pumpkins! My normal photo studio didn’t work for something this big, so borrowed a chess board off my partner.
Because my friend who ordered this piece has a little girl I included a little hedgehog for her to have, I’m not sure the final mirror corners would hold up to being treated like toys, but the hot glue seemed to support everything well.
My friend kindly sent me a photo of them in situ! They look so tiny here, I was worried they would be too big, lol!
