Meet Winston, my first FURGOTTEN BEAR needle felted re-creation

Furgotten Bears is the name of my new line of bears. I have decided to use my art to help minimize the impact on our landfills. I now go on the hunt for unwanted, abandoned bears, and clean them up and give them an extreme make-over. I needle felt a whole new art bear from the old one. This gives each bear a new unique second chance to bring joy to someones life! Watch for my Etsy store opening soon!

Needle Felted Brown Bear

My friend Vikki was very happy to receive one of my needle felted bears for her daughter, who just became a big sister! Brynn, who is 6 years old, asked what my last name was, and that is what she named her bear! How adorable is that?

This is Nasby , the silly little bear.

Needle Felted Goblin Doll

Here is my attempt of a goblin creature, inspired by Tanglewood Thicket. She has an incredible imagination, and her creatures are fantastical!

Another Needle Felted Relief Technique

My hubby is getting concerned with all of the "taxidermy" that is going up all over the house!

I just cant help it! I love this relief technique! I am desperately seeking some other samples from artists who do this technique...so if you are out there please send me a link to your site! I spend about 8 hours on these guys...which satisfies my need for instant gratification...as long as I can start and finish a project in the same day, I am a happy camper.

First needle felted landscape

I was surfing for inspiration, and definitely found some from the incredibly talented Andrea Graham

This is my attempt at a river bed. Landscapes are so fun...however I felt like I couldn't stop adding to it. Finally it was exhaustion that decided when to call it quits! LOL.

Naraygon The Dragon

Hello, and welcome to my blog!

I hope you will find some inspiration here. I am always up to something!

This is one of my first 3D needle felted art sculptures. My photography skills do not capture all of his beauty and detail. He was so fun to make, and quite a challenge. His name is derived from a combination of my two children's names.
Nathan & Raya. Thanks for looking!
