Felting Friends: Gift Certificate Winners Announced!

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out.
It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being.
We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
~Albert Schweitzer

What a wonderful thing to be grateful for -- one who ignites your inner fire, helps you stir up your own excitement and envision the details of your dreams and goals coming to life.

For artists, this inner spirit expresses through our creations, our crafts, our gifts, our hobbies and our art. Let your soul shine this week as you enjoy the process of your creative expression, and send thoughts of gratitude for those in your life who support and encourage your creative endeavors...they are truly a gift.

As always, we wish you happy felting, and let us know if you have any questions or need any support by emailing us at
customer service@livingfelt.com

With Love,
Marie

In 2010 Living Felt held an International Felting Contest with two themes: Felted Dolls
and Alice In Wonderland.

The contest was designed to inspire quality in craftsmanship, to encourage artists to reach for their very best effort, to create a lasting source of inspiration to artists, and to support promotion of felting as an artistic medium.

We received over 50 fabulous entries
