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.
Hand-made using needlefelt techniques and incorporating ethically sourced natural materials, my birds, from their feathers to the plants that they are posed on, are made from plant and sheared animal fibres and reflect my values of sustainable making: re-use, recycle and compost back to nature.
Orders received from now and throughout Christmas will all be posted on the 2nd January 2025, so I can switch off and spend quality time with friends and family.
Wishing you and yours a wonderful festive season and see you next year!

There is something regal about the Great Tit, with his crisp white cheek like freshly laundered linen and winter-sun yellow breast. Unlike the Robin, which is about the same size, they stand off from you and haughtily require privacy at the garden feeder. But there is nothing as bright and vivid against the snow and frost as those blue flight and tail feathers, popping as brightly as a Gaugin tropical island. It was a great challenge to try and translate all that colour and poise into such a tiny sculpture. I have stared long at him on my desk. He has, of course, ignored me.

Full description
One-of-a-kind hand-made needlefelt wool Great Tit standing on sparkly woollen snow in their own tiny hanging glass bell jar with a cork stopper and pretty ribbon.
Perfect in every detail, this colourful garden bird of Christmas and winter measures just over 3.5cms long and 2.5cms tall, stands on tiny wire legs with teeny claws, a minute woollen beady eye and beak, and individually crafted flight feathers. Scaled to 1:4 of life-size, this Titmouse fits easily inside the 11cm height by 6cm diameter glass bell jar with integral hanging hook, which comes ready for the Christmas tree with its own colourful hanging ribbon.
All the birds in this bell-jar range are to scale against each other, and made to hang perfectly together as a set which would look just stunning on the same Christmas tree.
