What is your idea of fun? Some people go fishing or watch TV; some go hiking or read. I do stabbing. If you stab the fluffy bundles long enough in the right direction, you can get yourself various creatures: fish, birds, mushrooms, whatever you want. It is called needle felting. To make your life easier, I gather all felting supplies in a little paper bag. You will get your needles there, wool, instructions and little notions, like beads for eyes or a lanyard.
If you have a friend who likes crafting, that is a perfect gift! Try a new hobby without big investments!
Find me on May 9th at and give me more ideas of what other creatures can be made with needle felting!

What is the difference between a sleeping mask and an eye pad? The sleeping mask has a strap and will stay on your head while you toss and turn. The eye pad has no strap, and it is filled with flaxseeds, creating gentle pressure on your eyes. You can put it in the fridge for a while to have a nice cooling treatment or heat it up in a microwave to warm up your sinuses. The covers are made of 100% vintage silk, are very soft and smooth, and are hand washable. Yes, you can touch them at my booth on May 9th at ! Believe me, 15 minutes with this pad will refresh you better than .... whatever you use for refreshment! It is just better!

A sleeping mask is not only for sleep. Use it for meditation and for relaxation. Every time you want to give yourself a break—put the mask on and enjoy. Doesn't matter if you do meditation or just a little nap, your mask will help.
It is a perfect gift for a mother's day, as sleep is something many mothers want more than flowers and chocolate.

Some plants are very stubborn: you water them and give them lots of light, but they don't grow, dropping their yellow leaves on the ground. But when you find the right fertilizer, they will perk up and give you the most beautiful flowers! Our dreams are like plants—we want them to grow, but we might not know the right conditions for them to flourish. Do you have a project that has not moved for months, despite your best efforts? Do you have a dream that really needs watering? Join our session on February 27th and find out what will help your tree to grow.
Price: $35+tax, all materials included.
Place: 438 Paul street, unit 4, Dieppe, Artful Wares art store.
Date: February 27th, 5:30 pm - 7 pm.

How do you fuse silk and wool together?
I use a little magic. (And soap. And water. And patience.)

This technique is called nuno felting. “Nuno” means cloth in Japanese. Tiny wool fibers travel through the silk and lock themselves in place forever. No glue, no stitching.
The result? The best of both worlds: soft like wool, light and flowing like silk. A perfect scarf for spring.

I love making these scarves — playing with colors, adding ruffles, fringes, and unexpected textures. Each one has its own personality.

You can still find a few of my scarves at the Handworks Gallery in Saint John.
And I also accept commissions — so if you’d like a soft, gentle scarf made just for you, this is your chance.

I have good news for people who like crafts—I will teach a special workshop for nuno-felted scarves on March 2nd at Petitcodiac, NB. Registration link in bio. Feel free to PM me for more details.
