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!

Not everyone knows when they have seen a Dunnock. They can be mistaken for sparrows or simply over-looked as nondescript little brown birds. However, if you have ever stood below whilst one lifts its head and sings a sweet frosty awakening song out to the morning or seen that brown flecked cheek and slate grey chest, you will know the wonder of these shy little birds. Look for them in the undergrowth, hopping below the hedge. They stand out beautifully on the snow, bringing woodland warmth to the crisp white blanketed ground. Leave them food and watch. You’ll soon never mistake a dunnock for a sparrow again.

Full description
One-of-a-kind hand-made needlefelt wool Dunnock standing on sparkly woollen snow in their own tiny hanging glass bell jar with a cork stopper and pretty ribbon, all enclosed in protective gift box.
Perfect in every detail, this colourful garden bird of Christmas and winter measures just over 3.75cms 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 ‘hedge sparrow’, as it was known in the olden days, 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.
