Charming little animals made from felt by a craftswoman from Russia (30 photos)
Anna Romanova, using the felting technique, turns wool into adorable toys and pocket-sized brooches. You can't take your eyes off her work! The creation of each product takes from 5 to 14 days, depending on the size and complexity. “I don’t like making copies of animals; my toys have their own style. You can see this by looking into their eyes,” says the artist.
“I’ve been making unique felt toys since 2010,” says Anna. “At first it was just a hobby, I like to please my friends, so I made toys for them.”
After the girl began sharing photos of her products on Instagram, she began to receive orders. Gradually, her hobby grew into a business.
In her work, the craftswoman uses sheep wool and special needles for felting.
Anna warns: “There are a lot of scammers on AlieExpress and Taobao who pass off my works as their own.” All of the girl’s works are presented on her Instagram and Facebook pages.
