Here are todays 3 Felt.Buzz positives:
1. I managed to take some good photos of the earrings I made yesterday and got them on Etsy
2. I made another earring using a couple of half franc pieces Andrea found yesterday and got that on Etsy (see below)
3. Another better weather day than was forecast: lovely walk with Andrea and Basil, will have another one after our guests have left the table (yet another positive our Bed and Breakfast is full today).

Today’s Felt.Buzz Spotlight is on Creepies…
What is not to love about Creepies! I am not normally a collector of things, but these guys seriously make me want to start. Each little Clay and Plushy creation has it’s own personality: and they are soooooo cute!
Run by Mr and Mrs Creepie, it is no wonder their 7000+ facebook fans love them. And, boy, do the Creepies love them back! Check out their giveaways! Their facebook page runs a weekly fan of the week contest, three of the hardest working fans each get a raffle ticket to be entered into a end of year giveaway, and each month a fan can win a mystery box. Also for every purchase from their website you get a raffle ticket for the end of the year giveaway!
As well as the cute Creepie models they also do cards and other artwork
You’d do worse than to like their page on facebook – every morning I have a Creepie facebook post, and it brings a smile to my face, everytime!

Available on Etsy or from our market stall. This was my first attempt at a butterfly. It took a long time (over two hours). The result is that the needle felted wings look as though they have been wet-felted.

Here are three positive things from today:
1) I wrote some more blog posts and had some lovely feedback from those published
2) I finished three pairs of earrings (dragon theme)
3) The weather was much better than forecast, which meant I had two lovely walk with Andrea and Basil the dog, as well as a bit of time felting in the sunshine!
Hope your day was good, and tomorrow even better.

Today I am going to have a look at Kozmic Dreams. 
The first thing to say about Kozmic Dreams: I absolutely love the name.
Kozmic Dreams is owned and run by Laura Whitford. She makes her own designs and sells unique knitted and crocheted owls, cats and more. Each one she makes has it’s own personality and no two are the same.
You can find Laura at many craft fairs around Royston. Recently she was at Knebworth House Country Fair.
In the virtual world you can find Kozmic Dreams on Etsy, Twitter and Facebook. Her facebook page is great because she shares things that interest her (and me!) as well as information about Kozmic Dreams, and she is great at interacting with her followers and fans on both Facebook and Twitter.
Disclaimer: there is no incentive behind this review (financial or otherwise) other than to highlight a company that I like and find interesting

I made this ladybird at the market on Friday
Hope your Sunday was good folks.
Here are three reasons why mine was good:
1. Painted an old grill I am going to use to display my earrings and other things
2. wrote several blog posts some posted today, some ‘in the bag’ for later posting
3. made another butterfly brooch
Hope you have had a good weekend 🙂
Today the Felt.Buzz Spotlight falls on Coldham Cuddlies.
Coldham Cuddlies is run by Isobel Morrell, who has been making these toys and mascots since the 1950’s. She has had an Etsy shop since 2010. What is fantastic is she uses patterns she has been collecting for 60 years so her toys have a real vintage feel. The toys are made using unusual faux fur and colourful plush fabrics. They are all stuffed with polyester fibre, meeting all international standards – and are made in a totally smoke-free environment. They are long-lasting, cuddly, safe for everyone from birth to the Third Age.
Isobel has a good internet presence, she uses facebook, twitter and has a blog as well as her Etsy shop. She certainly uses these mediums really well, and it is worth befriending and following her – she retweets and is fun to interact with.
So if you are looking for a safe vintage toy go and check out Coldham Cuddlies.

Today was a good day. Here are just three reasons why:
1) I spent 3 hours at the Boutique du coin in Vallière, had a chat with some nice people, and the sun was shining
2) Made a felt butterfly whilst ‘working’ in the boutique. I had set a goal to make a butterfly this weekend so objective achieved!
3) Had some good feedback on my creations on Twitter and Facebook today: warms the cockles of my heart, so it does.
Hope you had a good day 🙂
