I just made my first shop update/drop of my new Woolly Orb line of earrings. I have 4 styles and each style has multiple colors to choose from! coppermothstudio.square.site #fiberart #artist #smallbusiness #earrings #fashion
A few pairs of Woolly Orb Cascade Statement Earrings hang lined up together, they are made of 4 wooly orbs, graduated in size from smallest at the top to largest at the bottom. They are in many different colors.

My BFF just finished posting her first shop update for her adorable felted wool earrings. I know quite a few people here who would love this sort of fluffy goodness. She has a few different styles of tiered Woolly Orbs in a large variety of color combos. coppermothstudio.square.site/shop/woolly-...

Finished another spindle in my Jenkins Rainbow along. Teal is finished on my Mopane Finch. Now I'm going to circle around and spin the yellow and green. I had spun these colors previously, but sadly lost the spindles. Next up is Yellow on a Kingwood Finch. Rainbow braids - Greenwood Fiberworks

This tablet weaving project has been quite the challenge but it has brought me so much joy! This is the finest thread I’ve woven with to date and getting the gradient just right across the warp added an extra layer of difficulty, but well worth it!
