Technology: we’ve got it covered

There’s something lovely about powerful cutting edge technology encased in a traditionally handcrafted cover to protect it from harm. Made of felt and fully lined with an extra layer of felt inside, these wee cuties by Niteowlstitching are the perfect size for your smart phone.

And smart phones are not the only mobile device getting their craft on – with Zippitydoodah’s gorgeous upcycled wool covers adorned with vintage doilies, Now and Then’s stylish sleeves and Sarika’s elegantly bound cases, your tablet and e-reader are covered too.

Nothing says love like his and hers slippers

The last thing any relationship needs is cold feet, and here’s the perfect solution: his and her crochet slippers. And just in time for Valentine’s Day!

Matching outfits may be pushing it, but you’ll get away with matching slippers – who’s going to know? This cute and cosy footwear is available in both men’s and women’s sizes, made to order by WhiteNoiseMaker.

Cheers to a new year!

If, like me, you’re only just resurfacing from a few weeks of rest and relaxation before checking in to 2012, perhaps a shiny new calendar or diary will help you make the transition. Some very talented folk on Felt have compiled 2012 calendars to brighten your year with their stunning artwork and inspiring ideas.

As for day to day, you can’t go wrong with a customised diary of your very own, or the ever-inspiring Kiwi Diary – a goldmine of interesting facts and fabulous Kiwi ingenuity.

Happy Christmas and thank you from Felt!

Since Felt began I have finished up every year feeling grateful and amazed by the support and general loveliness of the Felt community. This year, as we’ve faced challenges I never imagined I’d need in my business plan, it has meant a great deal more than ever before. Thank you for continuing to support Felt and for making it such an awesome community to be part of!

From Friday 23 December until Wednesday 4 January the Felt team will be enjoying a bit of time off. Enquiries during this time will be answered, but please note that we may take up to 48 hours to respond.

Sellers, if you’re also planning some downtime over summer, don’t forget to pop your shop into holiday mode.

I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and here’s to a fabulous year in 2012!
