Meet Amanita Fly the mushroom fairy!
Amanita lives in a fly agaric mushroom house. Both Amanita and her house are made from 100% wool.
You can buy Amanita and her house from our Etsy Shop. Also in this new range are Patty Marron (the pumkin fairy) and Pomme (the apple fairy). Other fairies will appear very soon….
Here are three positive things that occured in Felt.Buzz land, on Tuesday 29th July:
1) I completed a couple of pieces of felt work yesterday. Not as sure as I was before as to where I am going with it, but it is part of the creative process to have doubts and sometimes you ignore them and produce something great and other times your doubts lead to something even better. We’ll wait and see…
2) Had a lovely walk with Basil the dog. There are so many trees and bushes overladen with fruit at the moment (very early). It will be a bumper year for jam and sloe gin!
3) Another day with the B&B full. But no meals to prepare so felt quite relaxed and we only had one room to prepare yesterday. Managed to catch up with ironing (get it out of the way for another week or so!) so that is good too.
Looking forward to Wednesday: hope it brings you productivity and joy!

Late again, but have had too many early mornings in a row to stay up updating the blog before sleep calls. So here are Mondays good things
1. Completed the prototype for my new project. Need to scale it down, so looking forward to that today. I also spent time updating my blog, which I was pleased with as I had given myself the weekend off, and it can sometimes be difficult to get kickstarted again.
2. There was enough gaps in the rain for me to sit outside with a coffee and do some felting, as well as play rugby with the Basil dog!
3. We had noone arriving (or leaving) yesterday, in the B&B, (which could be seen as a negative in high season but I choose to see it positively because): this meant no cleaning of rooms and Andrea had a chance to chill together. Enjoying the smells from the kitchen too: Andrea brewing up some batches of apricot jam
Opps, bit late on posting Sunday’s 3 positives. Was so tired last night I decided to treat myself to sleep rather than blogging! Anyhoo, here are a selection of positives that happened yesterday..
1. Started work on a new project. Not going to say much at the moment, but it does involve a pumpkin…
2. Took some photos of the dragon I made at the market (and finished at la Boutique du Coin, on Saturday). Here is one of them:
3. After a busy morning at the Bed and Breakfast, we had an afternoon and evening free. Went to Blessac for the vide grenier (car boot sale to all you UK types), bought 4 necklace displays and some things for the B&B and bought a kilo of blueberries (of which only 500g made it home, the rest took a ride in our bellies). Great weather yesterday too. Had lunch sitting out in the sun, and dinner too.
Hope you had a good weekend and are looking forward to a positive week.
Evening all, hope you are enjoying your Saturday. Here are my Felt.Buzz three positives of the day:
1. Did a shift at the Boutique du Coin in Vallière. Had some good chats with customers and other artisans and producters. Managed to find time to do some felting too. Didn’t sell any of my stuff, but one of my acorn garlands was sold this morning 🙂
(not this one, but one like it)
2. Had some time to relax outside (after doing breakfast for 9): lunch outside the house, lovely. And then this evening we sat in the town square, watching the world go by (and a large honking procession of wedding cars), and ate pizza and chips! Got to love carb on carb action!
3. Went for a post dinner walk. Took some photos (using the tablet):
Had some suggestions and thoughts for some new felt projects too. All in all, a pretty good day.
How about you?

Hello everyone, hope you had a good Friday and have a fantastic weekend to look forward to.
Here are just three positives from today:
1. I sold some stuff at the market today (hurrah) including this wizard
which I am kind of sorry to see go, so will have to magic up another (but different wizard)
2. I made a dragon finger puppet whilst at the market, and got a lot of positive comments about my hat (if you missed it this is it:
)
3. Another busy day at the B&B, we are full, but no evening meals so despite getting up at 6, doing breakfast, then going to market, and cleaning the rooms, once we’d welcomed the guests in and left them to have a ‘bonne soirée’ it has felt like a bit of a day off. Funny old world, innit?
An addition plus was the weather has been pretty good (apart from the blip of the thunderstorm half way through the day) so we have enjoyed the sun, and a nice evening walk.
Here was the view from our bedroom window a couple of hours ago:
Life is good: have a good evening 🙂

Ce chien s’appelle Patch. Il sera disponible à vendre a la Boutique du coin, Vallière dès Samedi 26 juillet (après midi)
This dog is called Patch, he will be on sale at the Boutique du Coin, Valliere from Saturday 26th July (afternoon)
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.
