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.

The world feels grey at the moment, not just because of it being winter, cloudy and cold. So I wanted to bring some brightness and colour into my life and yours and Toucans are not only brightly coloured but are also fascinatingly shaped. They are basically beaks with birds attached to them, living in rainforests in Central and South America. I chose the Toco Toucan because of his scarlet rump, his blue legs and eye ring and obviously because of that HUGE orange-yellow-red beak. They just say LOVE to me!
Safety information
Glass bell jar must be handled with care to avoid breakage. The cork base is not permanently attached to the glass top section and should only be separated with great care. If separated only gentle pressure should be applied to reattach the bell jar to the cork. The tiny bird and any botanical elements are permanently attached to their plinth and will contain wool and plant fibre products and wire which may be sharp if handled roughly.

Full description
A collection of 5 utterly unique, limited edition tiny wool Toco Toucans in 1:12 scale natural habitat dioramas. A tiny bird perfectly formed to share your love with that special someone, be they bird lover, miniature collector or dollhouse enthusiast.
Your tiny Toco Toucan sits atop a piece of Whitstable beach driftwood nestled into a mossy bed of wool, a shimmering water’s edge and grass made with beach-foraged dried wildflowers.
Presented in its own scenic tiny world this miniature bird is just over 3cms long and 7cms tall, is perched upright on tiny wire legs gripping a tree-stump, has a minute wool beady eye and a fabulous over-sized orange beak for which his species is famous. He has individually crafted flight and tail feathers. Scaled to 1:12 of life-size, this dainty little bird fits easily inside the 9cm high by 6cm diameter glass bell jar sealed with a cork stopper.
Each Toco Toucan bell-jar diorama comes securely enclosed in a beautiful high-quality gift box tied with a bow, snuggled in tissue paper and with a signed Mindful Felting tag to authenticate it as one of my own bespoke bird creations.
Also every gift box has two specially made PVC-free vinyl ‘Toucan Love’ stickers based on my original note-book watercolours of Toucans for indoor and outdoor use.
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.
