This is my storefront. It's a place where I feature a variety of crafty things that either I make or I collab with other local folks to make. I aim for ecofriendly as much as possible, and handmade, here in USA.
Also, if it's my artwork, you're going to find similar pieces, but each one is completely handmade and unique. So, for instance, you will find two red roses... but they are handpainted, so each one is slightly different because I'm not a machine.
These things go to help pay the feed bill. I can't take special commissions because they take me a LONG time to make. All ingredients are listed. Pay link is right beside the product.
Any questions? Drop me an email and PLEASE.... include the product number so I can find it. Thanks!
I do LIVE streaming and teaching videos of primitive/homestead skills wool spinning, basket weaving, DIY , guitar and piano playing and singing, helmet cam POV horse videos, and live videos with the animals or a good trail ride or walk on a sunny day.

I sheared them, washed the wool is Dawn dish soap, spun and plied it, all by hand. Like my other wood buttons I make, this button is about a half inch thick as a fun accent piece, carved by hand from ethically sourced downed branches on our property, carved into a button, then burned with a fun design.

3" Whorl Drop spindle - # 8002 Purple rose with sparkles
These spindles were a collab effort between myself and local PNW artist, John Rollins, my Dad. He is a retired auto tech and he putters around in his shop and makes fun things. These drop spindles are ADJUSTABLE! Below here is a video that shows how to take them apart to make them top or bottom whorl. This one is a 3" whorl and as a hand spinner, I found that it works great with my delicate alpaca, or even my Shetland wool. It's not too heavy and spins perfectly, and stores a lot of wool on it. Dad milled beautiful blue pine downed timber ethically sourced here in the PNW, and then made these whorls. You'll find his little maker's mark, "JR" on the bottom of each whorl. There were hand painted by me, each piece unique. Also eco-friendly, are the labels- made from recycled paper pulp (made by me), and the string to tie it on is twined (by me also) grasses from outside. Cattail or field grass of some kind.
$24.35 includes shipping by U.S. Mail within the continental U.S.
