Hi everyone, I have been busy getting ready for a couple of arts and crafts shows. I have my usual paintings to display, but will also have a Christmas table with handmade ornaments and painted rocks, etc. I've really had fun making these cute little owl ornaments of felt.
I made my own simple pattern by just drawing the shape, basically a rectangle with ear turfs. Then I cut out two oval shaped "wings" and white circles for eyes with smaller black circles. A rounded shape make the eyelids and of course, a golden beak. I stuffed them lightly as I whipped around the edges.
The last finishing touch was a bit of Christmas greens and berries, tiny cones, and a piece of ribbon for hanging. I sewed everything, except I did glue on the Christmas trim. They are really cute, especially a whole basket of them!
The little owls are so cute. They make quite a cute little flock and I am sure that they will fly off the tables. Glad that you are enjoying mild weather. Here it was cool, cloudy, and breezy today. No moisture. Have a good week end, Egretta.
