Woodland vibes are the best kind of vibes. I for one would love to be surrounded by cute woodland creatures at all times. If you see anything that involves bunnies, baby deer, cute raccoons, squirrels, foxes, hedgehogs, bear cubs, little ducklings, etc – just sign me up, count me in, I’m always up for that kind of thing. So imagine my level of excitement when I came across this Instagram account of incredibly realistic looking felted animals.
These fluffy little animals are made by a Russian artist Yulia Derevschikova using a special wool felting technique. The result is both incredibly realistic and almost ethereal at the same time. These felted animals will stun you and make you feel like you stepped into a fairy tale world. Honestly, at this point, Disney should be jealous.
This kind of work takes a lot of time, passion and dedication. It takes Yulia around 20 hours of work to make one animal and it’s her attention to detail that makes these creatures look like they are real living animals.
Yulia has accumulated over 100k followers on Instagram and now has her own online shop where you can buy yourself one of her adorable felted animals to make your home look more like the woodland wonderland you might be dreaming of.
