Turnip Darling is Here!

A new needlefelting kit friend has arrived! Turnip Darling is the most darling of all, thanks to Heide Murray of All Good Wishes!

Heide is an amazing needlefelter, known for her adorable felt objects which she sells at local craft fairs like Fancy Tiger's Holiday Handmade. We are huge fans of Heide's work and asked her to design a needlefelting kit for Fancy Tiger. Please welcome: Turnip Darling!

We hope you love this sweet turnip friend as much as we do! The kit includes everything you need to make two darling-to-the-max turnips of your own.

Turnip Darling is available in our shop here in Denver and in our etsy shop online.

Better Know A Crafter: Keith Parker

Keith came into the shop and purchased some laminated fabric (in a fantastic Oz print by Sanae) to reupholster his garden chairs. Less that three hours later he was back with his fancy new updated garden chairs! We love it!

Keith Parker

What kinds of crafty things do you like to do?

I mainly just fix things. I think it makes things look better and more personal. I do most anything that involves power tools.


Tell us about this project.
I reupholstered some garden chairs. It was easy--I just used plywood, foam and some material from Fancy Tiger, a skill saw, scissors and a big stapler.

How did you learn your crafty skills?
My parents mostly, and some DIY books.

Thanks Keith! Be careful with those power tools and happy crafting!

New! French Macaron Needlefelting Kits!

We are so excited to present our brand new, sugary sweet French Macaron needlefelting kits!


Macarons are our new confection obsession. Macarons are the new cupcake.

In celebration of our newest needlefelting kit we had a macaron partie de jardin. After an unsuccessful search for traditional French macarons in Denver we ordered a package of tasty macarons from Luxe Sweets in Austin, Texas. These macarons don't have anything to do with coconut--ours were filled with ganache of rose, orange blossom, lemon, espresso and passion fruit. Très délicieux!

We'd love to eat these decadent treats every day. Does anyone know of a bakery in Denver that makes macarons?

Check the Fancy Tiger Etsy shop for our new macaron kit and all the other Fancy Tiger needle felting kits!

Heirloom Seeds for Spring!

We are getting really excited for the coming growing season and are hoping to have an abundance of heirloom vegetable growing in our backyards this year. So, for the first time ever and for a very limited time, Fancy Tiger is carrying heirloom seeds. We have seed packs for super cute and tasty vegetables, edible flowers, and even garden wonderberries--all from the adorable heirloom seed company, Baker Creek Seeds.


All of Baker Creek's seeds are non-GMO, open-pollinated, natural rare seeds and priced from $1.50 -$3. Now is the time to get these seeds sprouting, so come by and pick some up for your summer garden.
