Herdy Bauble

 


Every December I buy a new decoration for our tree, and this year was to be no exception. Only this one I got way, way back in January, and tucked it away safely in a drawer. That was until last weekend, when I took great joy in finally hanging it up on our Christmas tree.

This gorgeous little sheep bauble has been hand felted from actual Herdwick fleece, and he has the most adorable expression. He is sitting beautifully, high up on the tree, in between Peter the Polar Bear and Glittery the Mouse Angel, who are keeping a watchful eye on him Now he just needs a name.

  4. What an adorable ornament! Felt ornaments just might be my favorite. We always buy at least one new ornament every year. Last year I started a new tradition of gifting a new ornament to Charlotte on Christmas Eve.
