Hand -crafted Nordic Christmas

I have always made my own Christmas decorations. I was often told I should exhibit them as people found them different and reminded them of Christmases of their childhoods. Old fashioned Finnish Christmas.I am often told when people look at my work they can only smile. Driftwood I use for my work is mostly from Finnish Lapland. Tontttu is a Finnish word for Christmas elf. All my tonttus are hand made.. Some of my tonttus are needle felted some are wood. Reindeer and other animals are made with felt. Everything is hand made by me. You can also find me in Etsy and Country Living Christmas Fair in Harrogate.
