About Celestine and the Hare

Celestine and the Hare

Needle felted creatures

Karin Celestine lives in a small house in Monmouth, Wales.
In her garden there is a shed and in that shed is another world.
The world of Celestine and the Hare.

It is a world where weasels are ruled by King Norty,
pandas ride space hoppers and bears read stories to each other.
It is a place that makes people smile and where
kindness is the order of the day. All are welcome.

Karin taught children, about art, about chemistry, numbers,
crafts and magic, but she was always drawn back to the Shed
where she brings to life creatures of all kinds using only wool,
observation and the power of imagination.
Karin and the creatures love stories and kindness, books and choklit
and making things, and on Sundays they have Danish pastries
but not the apricot ones because they are frankly wrong.
I make needle felted characters and write children's books featuring them. Small acts of kindness and a craft activity at the back. Published by Graffeg. I also run needle felting workshops, have a membership club and have a border collie puppy and 4 cats because life wasn't hectic enough!
