Wow, this is a really well done piece.
Do you know if raw wool is available at Hobbylobby or Michael's, or some other store? I really would like to avoid ordering online if possible, and I've been wanting to try needle felting for quite some time now.
And do you know where I could get a felting needle?

I live in Australia so I'm not sure about US in-store supplies of needle felting supplies, sorry!

Very cute. <3
As, the comments sound like you've tried this a few times, you may want to leave the backs of the ears pink in future attempts, as mouse ears only have a light, pale fuzz. :3

Thank you!
This is made through the art of needle felting - stabbing at wool roving (what wool looks like before it's spun into yarn) with a barbed needle again and again until it meshes and felts together. Lots of time and focus!

Thank you! I don't know why people don't like rats and mice - maybe if they're diseased, fair enough, but they're so sweet and great pets!

Thanks so much! I was really trying to get it as realistic as possible, so I'm glad it looks close to a real mouse!
