Special Halloween and christmas ones already ready too! (about 100 per collection)
A little about me if you will...
Hello!
So glad to have you here. This winter and New year have been a turning point for me as i return to my little mice creations. Once a few years back i did handsew some little felted mice but this time i have switched to needlefelting with different poseable designs and boy has it snowballed...!
It went from a simple making of needle felted mice to a character, to a house, to a town, to other characters and a story... and me being told what to do by a felt mouse.....and it has got out of hand and could not possibly be contained on simple instagram pages...
Hence the idea to join the ranks of all those starting a snail mail club . The aim is to share Alfie's story, a chapter each month following the seasons. This can be subscribed to as a digital version (tier 1) but for those who still yearn the feel of paper in hand Tier 2 and 3 will give you that sweet anticipation of waiting for mail in your actual letter box. A proper envelope containing the story and other little goodies and artwork depending on your tier.
I am an english/french self-taught artist based in Italy with a few too many creative ideas and projects. However I have been slowly honing in on what would suit me best. Having gone from large scale down to miniature scale the change is quite an adventure!!
Those who already know me know that i have been a fursuit maker for the last few years and the transition to this smaller scale will hopefully be easier for me since the sheer volume of a fursuit is a lot to deal with.
Also as some of you may already know Menagerie of Felt Enchantments is not an entirely new project. You may recall I already had a mouse phase with that name. Whilst unfortunately that came to a halt for personal reasons, I am happy to pick the project up with the same name and adapt it to this new venture.
As for the original inspiration: my ratties. I have had 10 ratties and they
are the most adorable of creatures. Whilst so many fear them or are
disgusted by them, i strive to show off how adorable, intelligent and loving
they are.
I love to tell stories and create worlds so that we can escape from our daily chores
so what better way than to actually create the characters ande develop a story and hopefully in time create art, books, stop motion etc around those characters.
