Handmade Felt Wool Heart Keyring

These beautiful felt wool heart keyrings are handmade from 100% wool from my flock. The wool is all hand-dyed or its natural colour, blended together and needle felted into the shape of a heart and then threaded through a length of strong waxed jute and fastened to a rustic colour keyring. Some of these keyrings are more detailed and feature animal pattern designs, nature-inspired themes and fairy tales and books-inspired spiral decoration. They are really lovely lightweight keyrings, not heavy or clunky. These will make sweet little gifts and practical keyrings and each sale directly supports my woolly flock.

Most of the wool used to make the keyrings comes from Mango the sheep who grows fantastic wool for needle felting. The felt wool heart keyrings are packaged in recycled tissue paper and posted as a large letter parcel. The jute and the metal keyrings are sourced from small British suppliers on Etsy.

Please view the photos there are 18 different keyrings to choose from each is priced according to the detail/time spent making it.

Please use the drop-down menu and select the keyring you would like to buy. If you are unsure which keyring is which please view the individual photos as these each say the name of that particular keyring.

These hearts are made by a process called needle felting. Needle felting is a way of working and sculpting dry wool using special barbed needles. Repeated stabbing of the wool using these special needles causes the fibers to interlock and tangle and if you work it long enough you end up with a firm solid piece of felted wool. All my needle-felted items are very solidly felted with carefully added details. They are not flimsy soft needle felting they are worked until the felt is hard and firm. Crafted with a lot of love and care, never rushed and made properly they take a surprising amount of time to make and that’s not even including the time spent shearing the sheep, washing the wool, carding, dyeing or spinning the little tails! My needle-felted crafts are priced according to the amount of time spent making them.

Please note – This is NOT a toy. It has been created for display and decoration purposes only. It is made from small needle felted wool pieces and hairy textured wool and so could pose a hazard for babies or small children. Please DO NOT give to children under 3 years old.

We keep a well-loved, high welfare flock of pet and rescue sheep on the Llyn Peninsular in North Wales. Our sheep are a part of the family and each is known by name. All our wool and makes are vegetarian-friendly as we do not breed or sell sheep for the meat market and our sheep live out their natural lives with us. I am a full-time mum and shepherdess. In my (none existent!) free time I make things from wool from the sheep in order to sustain them.
