Needle Felt Dad a Fun Family of Frogs this Fathers Day!

Ok try and say that 10 times fast! 🙂 But isn’t a Fun Family of Frogs a neat idea to bring some joy to Dads office, bedside table, or garden shed?

I really love the ideas that they come up with over at Woolbuddy and maybe it’s purely because of their quirky designer Jackie Huang. And when you read about their now quite large business you can see that this is perfect as a Fathers Day project. The following is an excerpt from their website:

Our story begins with a father’s love for his newborn daughter. Founder Jackie Huang, a former Lucas film 3D story artist and art teacher, wanted to give his little baby only the best toys that would put a smile on her face. He wanted to gift her something unique, something special but found nothing. This was when he decided that nothing could be more special than making the toys for her. As he had mastered the skill of needle felting years ago, he began needle felting woolen toys for her. Today, the toys that were so lovingly made for his daughter continue to put a smile on many children’s faces. Jackie had managed to create a truly special line of handmade toys.

In fact all the projects over at Woolbuddy would be awesome creations for dads from all walks of life, Jackie has come up with such seriously fun projects you will want to try them all!

So make sure you have a look through the website at Woolbuddy.com to see all the inspirational kits, books, supplies and more! I have to say, their wool mats are AMAZING to work on and so much better for the environment than foam squares!

Today though we are looking at how to make Jackies gorgeous frog and you can follow along with his free video over on Youtube. It may be a few years old but these frogs are just as popular today as they were then and they are a perfect project for the beginner or to do with your children!

Receiving something like this from your children, made by them, is just so extra special
