Fall 2011 Collection

Hello all!

Have you visited Niko & Nonnie's website recently? I have just added a preview from the Fall 2011 Collection. While I am still working on many new pieces, I thought I'd slowly list new designs and inventory over the course of the next month.

Here's a sneak peak of what you'll find...

Needle felted HARVEST FAIRY 

Isn't she just gorgeous? I really enjoyed making her. She is needle felted from 100% wool and even has multi-hued highlighted hair, the result of some very special hand-dyed merino! I imagine her on a nature table or on display, perched above a child's bed...She would even make a delightful companion for a little dreamer.

LOVESTRUCK felt+wood beaded necklace

These necklaces are a new addition and I absolutely adore them. The wool balls are wet felted and they are accented by natural wooden beads, all strung on cotton embroidery floss. The simplicity of the design, coupled with my own supply of very colourful roving, means that I can reproduce and customise them easily. I am in the midst of making many more of these in all sorts of colours of the spectrum, and will be listing them as they become available.
