Over the last few months I have quite some surprising success selling my felted jewellery. My pieces have been sold through Box of Beautiful Things, based in Carnforth , UK. I had made two collections , one using some shetland tweed and one based around turquoise beads.
Here's an example of the shetland tweed pieces.
I love the ridged effect you get as the shetland tweed is forced to shrink into the wool fibres.
The turquoise beads were matched simply with black fibres and some turquoise threads.
Now I need to make some replacement pieces. As usual my ideas change and I thought I should try and make something lighter and more summery. I therefore decided to start using some indian silk, I bought in Mumbai in 2013.
Pieces are still being made , but here a glimpse of work so far
