As you may recall, the July/August issue of Paper Crafts magazine is all about paper crafting ECO-nomically and ECO-logically. This, my friends, is why we most affectionately refer to it as our ECO issue. As I may have mentioned here before, it’s chock full of ideas that help you save money AND be kind to Mother Earth at the same time.

10 Rainbow Handmade Needle FELTED ACORNS

Set of 10 acorns in Rainbow...

How big are they? Well, they're lifesize. OK, around an inch. Colorful set of handmade acorns needle and wet felted from yummy wool roving. I made the woolly part, the big trees in my New England yard made the caps. And I am rolling in caps here... It's like my yard has been tiled in acorns!

This set is one each of the colors shown. Actual pieces might differ slightly from the photo but colors will be the same.

Put them in a dish, lay them on a table, add them to your holiday displays... or any place that makes you happy.

I'm happy to make a custom set for you... click on the Convo!
