Handmade needle felted ghosts that are the perfect decorations for Spooky Season or as year-round decorations for people who celebrate the cute and spooky every day! You can choose to either buy just your favorite little ghostie or the whole set! These ghosts are approximately 4 1/2 to 6 inches tall. (please add a note if you need them to be a specific height within that range). Just like their original human forms, none of my ghosts are exactly alike. Please allow for variations in shape and form! Each ghost is lovingly handmade and they each take on a personality of their own. All of our ghosts make a great gift on their own, but if you want to add a special touch, we have partnered with our friends at Barnacles and Moss to offer hand drawn cards to make a truly memorable gift! To add one, check out the cards here: https://www.etsy.com/NeedleGhosts/listing/1296206463/gift-message-cards-original-mini-prints?utm_source=Copy&utm_medium=ListingManager&utm_campaign=Share&utm_term=so.lmsm&share_time=1662400736956

This week, Benzie is delighted to bring you a tutorial from guest blogger Jeanna of @properpenny! We spotted Jeanna's felt pinecones on Instagram and knew that Benzie's creative community would love them. Not only will you learn how to make felt pinecones, but Jeanna also shows you how to turn them into a hair clip, napkin holder, and garland! This wintery craft adds a touch of sophistication to any holiday gathering. My biggest design influence has always been nature. It’s full of texture, color, depth and organic wild lines. When I set out to create these pinecones, I was just experimenting. If you like to die cut felt like me, you’re always looking for new ways to use a trusty steel rule die. This tutorial uses an old favorite from Sizzix. The best thing about these pinecones is their versatility. You can use them in decor, accessories, anything! You’re only limited by your imagination!

I was always intrigued by needle-felting. I found this tutorial on Pinterest and I loved the idea, but I had never tried this technique before, so I didn't dare just giving it a go without reading more about it first. As I couldn't find the original post online - the link just led me to a Polish "Pinterest-alike" tool - I had to look for information else where. Luckily, I am a member of Crafty Creatives and one of the monthly kits contained a pretty good "how to" for beginners with no previous experience on needle-felting. So below are my thoughts on this tutorial. I am not sure about the elbow pads, but I absolutely adore the idea of adding textured shapes to plain cotton fabric. The possibilities are infinite! What you will need: - Wool roving (this is wool that has been twisted, attenuated and freed of foreign matter in the stage before its conversion into yarn. It is more refined than wool batting). - Felting needle (Caution! Felting needles are covered in tiny barbs - these are what tangles the wool together - and it really hurts if you stab your finger with it, a lot more than with a normal needle or pin). - A foam pad (you can easily find this at Amazon or Ebay and they came in different sizes, make sure you get the ones specifically designed for needle felting, mainly because of its thickness). - For this particular tutorial a cookie cutter is used to help with the shape. Although it is not essential, it does help first timers. Things to keep in mind: - This process of needle-felting through another fabric is slightly different then just making shapes using your wool straight agains the foam pad. - Remember to work with layers and to keep your bundles about 1cm thick. You can always add bits here and there as you will see in the next pictures. - With the wool in place, start stabbing it. Remember you don't need to stab it too far in the foam. The barbs are the the tip of the needle. Last but not least... - After working a few layers, remove the cookie cutter (if you're using one) and work your edges. Use the needle to perfect your shape. - Once you've finished, use an iron to help fixing it. Remember to do it both ways (inside and out). I learnt that spraying some water over it before ironing helps make your shape denser.

As I was getting out all of my Halloween decor, I came across this pattern of a Bean Bag Bat that I designed and sold in craft stores that were popular in the 80's and thought that I'd share this with you. Below are the instructions. Both pages are 8 1/2" by 11" to give you the original size, but of course you can change it to any size you want. The Bats are really cute hung in clusters with different expressions on each Bat. You can even make one for each member of the family for decor purposes or use them in a game for Family Home Evening. Enjoy!

The final day of Crafting 365. Wow. I know it's taken me about 5 or 6 weeks more than 365 days to complete it (breaks taken for illness, broken boilers, and other domestic disasters) and I've not posted exactly every day (mostly because of my camera and internet connection letting me down, but sometimes due to laziness and forgetfulness too!) ... but WOW it feels so great to have those 365 days under my belt! I'm really pleased with all my pictures and how much I've sewn and how the Crafting 365 group has developed ... and I think my work has really progressed over the year too. Basically I am grinning a lot today :D I wanted to do something special for the last day, so I picked a project I've been wanting to work on for just ages - turning my big pile of bird sketches (made in June) into actual brooches. They need their beaks and eyes and, you know, sewing together but they're getting there... Very typical of me to post a work in progress shot!
