Felted White Mouse | Red Dress & Skis

Here comes the Felted White Mouse Ornament dressed in her festive Red Dress & Skis, a spirited little athlete who's clearly not letting winter weather keep her indoors. This delightfully whimsical handcrafted ornament features soft cream-white felted wool shaped into a charming mouse form with delicate gray-tipped ears, dressed in a beautifully knit crimson coat with cream trim and cozy blue mittens tucked in her pockets, topped with a matching red knit cap complete with white pompom, and equipped with a proper pair of golden-yellow skis adorned with tiny white snowflake details. 

Whether standing proudly on a holiday mantel, joining a nature table throughout the winter months, or becoming part of a cherished collection of woodland characters, Felted White Mouse brings a smile to anyone who loves to celebrate winter's most exhilarating adventures. Sometimes the most memorable decorations are the tiny characters who remind us that fresh powder and mountain air are calling—and the only proper response is to grab your skis and go. 

Each item is handmade of 100% wool from New Zealand through the ancient technique of felt making. By adding warm soapy water to wool and then pressing and rubbing, the fibers will tighten into a felted textile material. Gradually, as the fibers are tightening together, the items are shaped into their final form - flower, heart, bird, etc. Once it is dried, it is ready for its final embellishments.
