Felt Hammies!!

[sakuraheart]

A little experiment I wanted to share...so I made a seperate thread for it.
Felt hammies >3...so I did a prototype and when I presented it to mum...she asked me to try her ham Sassy....and I did Sherlock too, who I have just finished.x
Prototype first.x

Hope you all like them.x

[StarlightSerenity]

Awww they're really sweet :D

[Womblehands]

ooooooo very nice. They would look awesome on a christmas tree

[Willow's mummy!]

So cute! They would look great as a mobile too.

[Charley101]

I love them!

[Sandti]

Awww so cute!! They would be amazing phone holder cover things <3

[Marica]

aw wow! really love them, would buy them if i seen them in a shop xD

[gutterglitterxx]

So cute! I would hang them on my Christmas tree. :)

[pinkneon]

OH MY GOODNESS OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!! I WANT one!!! I think you should start a little business ... :D
And I agree, they'd be perfect for a mobile, for a phone cover, or you could make bigger ones and stuff them to make pillows!

[Call me Alison]

i want one!! my little girl would love one to! please sell them :) x

[sakuraheart]

Thank you guys for the responses....I'm happy you like them. I have hoped these are something I could market...so the interest is very flattering.x The size of these are designed for kering and such (sherlock is one my car keys) and the size does seem good for such things as decorations. I like the idea of a phone case as I already have a few standard one on my crafts facebook page.x I'd have to refine my skills more before I atemted pillow size :P. The link is in my sig for Sakura's on facebook...or you could pm me...I'd be happy to discuss any possible intrests in orders that way.xx

[sakuraheart]

I got a new hammie made...it's a costom order from Pinkneon. Her ham Belle. I was told that Belle's eyes were red but one was darker and almost red....so I went with adding a hint of red to a black eye....hopefully she like it.x

[sakuraheart]

Well Pinkneon bought one today of her Belle.x I thought doing them on a costom basis...that way people can have their hamster made.xx

[RachK]

Awww I love these they are so incredibly cute. :)

[LokiWolf]

So cute! If shipping wasn't so bad, I'd order two.

[Charley101]

I have placed an order for a Mylo felt hammie :) Looking forward to seeing it :D

[HadleyHam]

The little pink tail on the felt Belle makes it all the more precious!

PS- I second that, LokiWolf!

Aw thank you yazoo....I'm doing them at (PM for costs) at the moment....I'm trying out a pattern for dwarf hams too.x I'm definatley trying the xmas idea....I'll do them as a set I think.x

[HadleyHam]

You have totally inspired me to try making one of Hadley!
Would you mind sharing what supplies you used?

[Sandti]

How much is postage? Sakura? <3 xx

[sakuraheart]

HadleyHam: I use felt(good quality from a craft shop, better to work with) and embriodery thread and a bit of ribbon for the hook. I use a couple of strands for general strands and then three or more for the blanket stitch finish. The template is my own design...so you may need to cut out your own.x

Sandti: postage is a (PM for info) hun.xx

[Charley101]

Did I send you enough money SH? Can't wait for Mylo's to arrive :)

[HadleyHam]

I wish I could have you make me one, but I'm afraid it wouldn't be worth it with the cost of postage to the states! Did you use anything between the felt like batting?

Of course you should keep the template to yourself! Copyright that bad boy :D

[sakuraheart]

Did I send you enough money SH? Can't wait for Mylo's to arrive :)

No worries hun.x

Hadleyham: between the felt is just plush stuffing...again a craft shop or ebay is your best bet...I need some more soon too >3
you have to promise to share yours when it's done...I'm happy I was able to inspire you.xx

[Bekki2308]

theyre awesome!

[sakuraheart]

theyre awesome!

[pinkneon]

I've got my felt Belle on my keys. Today someone asked me where I'd got her from! They didn't believe that she was custom made and I heard them say to their friends they were going to look in every shop in the city until they find one lol ... We have many unique and quirky shops here. Guess they'll be looking a long time ...

Ok I did a dwarf so I'd love your feedback....I did a Robo but the template will work for all dwarfies. So heres a single pic and a comparison pic...I used a panda as they are the same as a syrian template. I'm very pleased with it and it's made me think about using the dwarf in a xmas set as an elf!

[HorseyMandz]

The dwarf is SOOOO CUTE! SQUEE!
