Welcome to my birding world of life-like wool-sculpted birds, where no detail is too small or feather too tiny for me to notice and recreate in fibre.
I add finished birds to Folksy and hope you can find the species or size of bird you are looking for. If not, reach out to see if I can make your choice of bird for when you might need it.
If I can help, I will want to.
Jacqui x
I first saw these tiny little birds in a big fir tree with huge mauve coloured fir cones. I could see something fluffy and stripey, which seemed weirdly balanced as it flitted among the branches. It was of course the Long-tailed tit, who would be one of our tiniest birds except for that amazingly long tail. I love making them life-size as well as in this mini 1:4 scale, tucked tidily in their own glass jar.
Safety information
Glass jar must be handled with care to avoid breakage. Do not remove the cork from the bell jar. If seperated only gentle pressure should be applied to reattach the bell jar and cork. The tiny bird is permanently attached to its plinth and contains wool products and wire wrapped in yarn forming its legs.

Full description
One-of-a-kind hand-made needlefelt wool Long-tailed tit perched in their own tiny glass jar wrapped with a ribbon in their own protective gift box.
Perfect in every detail, this cute and characterful garden bird measures just over 3.5cms long and 1.5cms tall, stands on tiny wire legs, has a minute wool beady eye and beak, and individually crafted flight and tail feathers. Scaled to 1:4 of life-size, this dainty little bird fits easily inside the 10cm high by 4.5cm diameter glass spice jar sealed with a cork stopper.
Quirky, sweet and full of character, my birds are tiny works of art designed to be educational and decorative items for the adult collector and are not toys.
All the birds in my 1:4 scale range can be displayed together as a 'true to life' set, perfectly representing the comparative sizes, colours and characters of our garden birds.
