A nestful of Autumn tweets
Pumkin Pie Tweet
Things have been a little quiet at the menagerie, lots of making but not a lot of new things going on, and then this week I noticed a slight chill to the air which hails the end of our all too brief British summer.

Pretty soon the leaves will start to turn and we'll be settling into the Autumnal season, long rainy days, windy nights and an extra blanket on the bed.

Autumn is actually my favorite time of year, an excuse to get out all those big jumpers that I packed away at the end of winter, harvest festival, crunchy dried leaves underfoot, the kids all back in school, the tourists all gone home.

Inspired by the change in the weather I decided to make some Autumn colour tweets and am enjoying naming them all. Am having a little trouble with this last fella tho... any ideas... he's a cutie no doubt but he doesn't want to settle on a name! Sweet potato? maple leaf? He just can't settle... any help would be gratefully received and the person who suggests the best name will get a little goody bag of postcards and magnets as a thankyou!
I recently decided to try and make Feltmeup a little greener... more environmentally friendly. We already use organically farmed wool from happy sheep so I felt a change in packaging might be required.
I love my little takeout style gift boxes but I import them from the US and then send them all back one at a time... which can't be great for my carbon footprint! I love the boxes but I love the planet more!
New packaging is made from 100% recycled fibres and is totally recyclable! Very nice! But it needed a little extra to make it special... cue custom *stamp* from littlegreyclouds on Etsy and a little shredded pretty coloured tissue paper... there, that's the ticket!
