Tamzen Lundy Designs Felt Maker and Textile Artist. TAP Trained Artist facilitator. Workshops. Cat lady. Adventurer. My products are 100% natural and biodegradable.

I'm tamzen, a textile artist specialising in the wet felt technique. This involves using wool and other natural fibres +soap+water+ hard work to turn the raw fibre into a fabric. Each piece is unique and handmade in very small batches, quite often complete one offs! You'll find me up to my eyes in fibre, soap and water most days, coming up with new and lovely gifts for my etsy shop...

Anne lynch 1949-2026

My mother passed away on Sunday night. After a very long and hard battle with Alzheimer’s.
She was an intensely private person and I am quite open, so I walk the line between honouring her and myself. But, I feel it would be remiss not to mark this on the grid and more importantly share the news with some followers I consider friends.

She was intelligent, determined, independent and occasionally formidable. She was funny and sharp witted. She ran 5kmx3 time a week and as she aged this changed to daily walks and litter picking. She rode a motorbike in the 80s and a horse in the 00s. She loved to garden and studied environmental science back in the 1970s. She never missed a day of work, carving out a career. She was santa claus, and the tooth fairy. She was an original " difficult " woman, a role I continue to keep up for her.

She would have hated this... she never liked events or a big fuss, she was very happy in herself... and we had all those things in common.

Business this week will be slower but goes on and any orders will go out next Monday.

Funeral: 10am Thursday Douglas funeral home, Ballynahinch, Co. Down.

And just like that I've launched Christmas!
Its out and in the wee webshop. I know some of you are early birds and need to find gifts to send abroad... so here you go.

I hope you like the new additions. Dadi na nollaig, that jolly little fat santa is made with real irish bred Galway wool beard!

Today is digital detox day... as I ironically post this ! But then turn my phone to silent.
In fact my phone is on silent most days ( if you are one of the few people I answer too then consider yourself family)... but before that and before a trip north I'll put this on the grid to whet your appetite.
The last of the wholesale boxes are going out today. Which means next week I'll focus on my own wee webshop. Christmas is incoming with some Web exclusives and new quirky delights. Look out for kiko frames and fat Santa's ( or Dadi na nollag)

In the meantime shhhh, hear that... its 1995 and there's a time when there was less interruption.

Fingers crossed Christmas launching next week.

Something for the grid to remind you I'm still here... my work at the moment is mostly revolving around brown, red and green... its behind the scenes, its every day, its slow craft.
Swipe to see creature that has taken over my world... Big C incoming and website launching.. soooon... but not this Friday as its " digital detox day"... and I'm all for that!

The landscapes and foxes seen here are already in my webshop... so for those requiring proper gifts, these items may suit. These are one offs, replenishment will always be unique items. So if you like these, bag em.

In the meantime wish me luck with another batch. Flying out to all those independent shops that ordered back in June- thank you early birds... these relationships mean the world.

Just letting those regular loyal purchasers know, my Christmas range will launch online in mid October. I'm currently delivering the range to little independent stores around Ireland. Behind the scenes I'm making like an Xmas elf as well as uploading a few new things and web exclusives too...

I'll keep you posted but for now, enjoy the conkers, the falling leaves and the changing seasons

Artworks are online already, these are original pieces- not repeated, so snap them up when you see them.

Attended Róisín de Buitléar yesterday... stepping away from the studio at a busy time of year but feeling a connection to the other craftspeople in the room as we try to navigate the balance between making a living and living well.

My work has always been grounded in a sense of place. Using natural materials and trying to capture an essence of Ireland in one off pieces, with no copies, no prints, no mass production.
Small batches. It's about the work not the packaging it comes in or the branding around it... the work has to stand on its own. The work and the labour of the craft, connecting communities and culture.

Just back from a few days R&R in lovely wicklow, before the craziness of the " big C"... added a few landscape pieces to my wee webshop for early bird shoppers who like to gift something special. As usual there is only one of each piece.

My own range of woollen Christmas decorations will go online mid Oct... but these lovely landscapes are new and there already for early bird shoppers- my favourite people!

There is a magic when the lights get low... these wonderful pictures taken of the evening by our resident photographer Daniel J. O'Neill whose work you can see and purchase in store. Shared the soft glow also with Sarah McGuinness and her jewel like glass work.
