Layering with Nuno Felt Shawls
Autumn is late this year – Summer stretching her arms into early October like a girl not wanting the party to end. But suddenly this week, it’s beginning to feel like change. Fog is rolling in across the water and casting a soft grey light into the trees. Dew drips down my windows and onto the deck. I started off this morning in my thick ‘winter’ bathrobe with my hands wrapped around a warm mug – the carved white one because it reminds me of cool weather, warm sweaters and my dear friend who lives half way around the world – it’s her favorite mug.
'Tis the season for layers
I might even have to start wearing pants and (real) shoes, instead of sundresses and flip flops...
HA HA Just kidding! I wear sundresses all year long – that’s what layers are all about! But of course, the minute I throw on sweaters and shawls, I start peeling them back off, leaving colorful piles throughout the garden and house.
I hope you are enjoying these early days of Autumn too and have some very colorful layers to wear while watching the moon rise.
Nuno Felt scarves and shawls are so darn luscious!
The first time I saw a piece of Nuno Felt I was smitten! The delicious texture and gorgeous color possibilities captured my creative spirit and ignited a passion for this versatile art form.
Nuno Felting is a highly textured fiber art—a charismatic cousin of pure felting—merging fine silk and wool into a cloth that is soft, supple and feels oh-so-wonderful draped around you!
The color combinations are endless—what a joy for us Color Goddesses! Here are some pieces in my shop (and of course, I do take commissions)
And of course, it’s always fun to add some bling to go with your luscious scarf:
Decorate your home too!
Shawls and wraps look fabulous in your home too! Try one on your table as a runner, or on the back of a chair, across your bed or even hanging on the wall!
One of my nuno felt shawls makes a lovely table runner. Stunning glass piece is by the husband/wife team at Kliszewski Glass
Another nuno felt shawl adds flair when tossed across the bed
