About this Product
Meet Santa’s Reindeer!
These reindeer possess the unique ability to fly, perhaps thanks to their supreme and sparkly antlers that give them the magic to pull a sleigh through the night sky on Christmas Eve.
Each reindeer measures 7” long from nose to tail and stands 10” high from the bottom of their twig legs to the top of their silvery antlers. Their bodies are meticulously crafted by first creating a wire armature and then layering and sculpting 100% wool through the process of needle felting.
Handmade by me, Santa’s reindeer come in various color combinations. They can adorn your beautiful Christmas scene, peeking through the wintery wonderland, or make a spectacular sight as a team pulling Santa’s sleigh. Custom orders are welcome, with subtle variations in each creation. To ensure quality, I photograph each custom order for you to view before shipment.

Good Feathers In Fiber
Meet the Maker
Welcome to Good Feathers in Fiber! I’m so glad you’ve stopped by to explore my whimsical world of woolen creations. I’m a needle felting artist with a passion for blending fantasy and reality, creating one-of-a-kind sculptures that spark imagination and joy. From thoughtful birds with stories to tell, to sweet mice enjoying garden tea parties, each piece I create is brimming with personality and handcrafted care.
I call my style "realistic fantasy"—a mix of intricate details and a touch of magic. I often incorporate sparkles, natural elements, and repurposed trinkets, ensuring every creation is truly unique. Alongside my playful characters, I also craft more lifelike animal sculptures and seasonal decorations, all with the same attention to detail.
Before I fell in love with felting, I ran a successful dance school for 39 years, where creativity was my everyday companion—whether through choreography, costume design, or set creation. Now in retirement, I’ve channeled that same creative energy into the art of needle felting, and it’s been an incredible journey bringing these woolen friends to life.
Whether you’re searching for a special gift or a little bit of magic for your own home, I hope you’ll find something here that makes you smile. Thank you for visiting—I’m thrilled to share this part of my world with you!
How it’s Made
I lovingly handcraft each little creature aiming to blend lifelike detail with a playful twist. Imagine them as realistic animals with just a touch of mischief! Most start with a tiny wire armature as their skeleton, which I then carefully wrap in wool, sculpting and shaping them through needle felting until they come to life, with soft, woolly "feathers" to complete the look. The wool I use is sourced from sheep grazing on farms across America, England, and Canada, adding a touch of international flair to each piece. Tiny beaks and hooves are either sculpted from clay and hand-painted or felted from wool, finished with a delicate beeswax coating. While these felted sculptures are crafted with joy and meant to bring smiles, they’re intended for display only—best kept out of the reach of curious little hands and paws.
