My mum needle felted this astronaut after she was inspired by an astronaut garden ornament she saved from being thrown away ✨

This is a felted bunny I recently made in memory of Max. 🌈

Max has crossed the Rainbow Bridge, and his family wanted to find another way to keep him close.

His mom once described him to me like this:

“Max was my first pet that I had full responsibility for and he was definitely my soul bunny. I’ve never seen another bunny quite like him.”

Max had such unique fur markings, with gray and white scattered unevenly across his body. What stood out to me the most were his beautiful blue eyes with their tiny pupils.

I used a wool implantation technique to recreate Max’s unique gray and white coat, carefully blending the colors to match his original markings. For the subtle color transitions, I also used pastel powder to soften the gradients and make his fur look more natural.

For his eyes, I painted the beautiful ocean blue with acrylic paints, trying my best to capture what made his eyes so special. 🌊

Max’s mom also sent me some of the fur he left behind. I added some of his real fur into the neck of the sculpture, so this little bunny could carry a tiny piece of the real Max with him.

We can’t turn back time or truly hold on to the ones who have left us. But with our hands, we can turn the love, memories, and little details that made them who they were into something we can touch, look at, and keep close for years to come.

This is my biggest and most complicated piece yet! Finally getting the hang of this stuff 😅

I loooove how they turned out! A few days ago it was just a random idea of mine to try and make a cute egg. That idea turned into two, adorable little eggs.

I'll keep the one with the ribbon for myself, and the other one, I'll gift to my boyfriend. It's a little surprise for him. 🤭

All that's left now is to glue a magnet onto each of them.

I'm thinking of making more food themed magnets in the future.

How do you like them??

Thank you for checking out my work! This is completely my own original design. I really wanted to create a playful, vibrant green cat character and pair it with textured crystal and wooden beads on leather cords. I'm so happy with how this keychain turned out, especially the color combination and little details! What do you think?

I’ve needle felted lilies quite a few times, but I keep coming back to them with softer colors. Soft pinks, a hint of lilac, and little touches of green in this one.

The sunlight caught it just right today. Does it remind you of a watercolor painting, too?
