Commission Unique Handcrafted Art with Butterflies

I decided to try this piece after thinking how it could be done, after my woodland piece I wondered how I could take it a step further.

I’d bought the glass dome and for a long time I kept thinking what I could do with it, as well as how I’d put together the finished article. I purchased some natural wood coasters for the base to give an organic feel, it was then a case of creating a mossy scene using wool felt and appletons crewel wool to create several hundred French knots to keep with the organic theme. Topped this whole piece off with a real tortoishell butterfly.

my books are now open for commissions on these, please feel free to message me at tony@themanbroiderer.co.uk for more information and prices.
