DESCRIPTION:
This is Betty's fleece which was shorn for her pleasure and yours as she is alive & well, happily roaming the fields on her small family farm.

What make's Betty's wool so special is her soft, springy locks which are a buff beige hue with hints of grey- lovely in home in any decor!

DECORATING IDEAS:
*visually soften a counter stool, bench, ottoman or chair seat.
*toss over the arm or backside of your sofa
*use as a pillow "cover" simply place square fleece over an existing pillow
*fleeces make a great addition to your baby's room or nursery
*a table top mat
*are a therapeutic "lap blanket". Unlike leather back hides which trap air and cause perspiration, my felted fleeces are 100% wool so they "breathe" which allows the air to circulate thus providing exceptional comfort through all four seasons
*add one, two or three to your bed pillows to add a touch of instant luxury to your bedroom

THE PROCESS:
Felting is a labor intensive art with each finished piece involving many hours of work - all done by hand! The end result is undeniably lovely and because of the hand made nature, you can be assured that no two pieces will ever be the same (in fact, a sheep's fleece will always grow back in with subtle differences from year to year) - thus assuring you of original and functional art for your home.

FIELD GRASS ETC:
* Prior to the actual felting process, I spend a great deal of time removing bits of bedding and vegetable matter from each fleece. These are real sheep living their best life out in their fields. Some sheep will have virtually no vegatative matter, while others will be chuck full! Therefore, please expect to find some remaining vegetable matter such as hay, straw, grain, tiny twigs etc. in your felted art piece. These bits shows up more evidently in light & dark colored feeces. If you are concerned or have special needs, please feel free to send me a message:)

CLEANSING:
* My felted fleeces are "washed" during the design process and once completed, I hand wash each fleece thoroughly using an all natural plant based cleanser which is safe for the environment and restores the natural pH of the wool. They are then set out under the sun to dry.

CARE AND MAINTANENCE:
* Because the structure of wool fiber, it is naturally dirt and stain resistant. It is best to gently shake (outdoors) and finger fluff to maintain loft. If necessary, your felted piece can be washed (or spot cleaned) in cold water with a gentle wool cleanser like Unicorn or white vinegar. The excess water can be gently squeezed out or spun in your washing machine on the gentlest cycle, then set flat to air dry. Combing or vacuuming is never recommended.
