Welcome to Atkins Art, I’m Steph! ❤

I’m a Plymouth UK based fibre artist. I create personalised felt hanging decorations that look like your pet. Over the years I have experimented using different mediums to craft with - originally making animal figures using clay. Whilst looking for a new challenge, I stumbled across needle felting and found that I could create 3 dimensional figures using wool (

which is great, much less mess!) I use my sculpture experience and apply this to my wool creations. I take my time studying pictures of customers pets to ensure I capture their shape and markings. Sculpting can take a while before applying the colour and so this is why I can only take a small number of commissions per year. (I also work)

I hope you all enjoy my updates.

Happy Saturday everyone!

In Dunelm again today until 16:30pm.

I only managed to make this little fluffball over the past couple of weeks. So here she is!🦌 ❄️ ❤️

My pop-up stall in LUSH Plymouth branch went incredibly well, and I ended up selling most of my stock! I’m honestly not sure I’ll have enough left for my last two events of the season… but mind you, that’s definitely not a bad problem to have!

I absolutely loved the buzz and atmosphere in the store. The staff were so warm and generous throughout, and the customers were just as lovely — so friendly, supportive, and full of kind words.

To top it all off, I had the most unexpected and exciting visit from the smallest, cutest dog called Edie. Her little outfit completely stole my heart. 🐾💛 (Check out her pics!)

I enjoyed the whole experience so much that I’ve already booked my slots for next year.

A huge thank you to LUSH for helping a small business, all the amazing staff, and of course every single customer who stopped by and supported me. 💕

I’m feeling so nervous… but also incredibly excited! 🎉
For the first time ever, I’ll be doing a pop-up shop inside LUSH in the mall tomorrow!

I’ll be there from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., sharing my creations and hoping to meet some of you in person.
It’s a big step for me, but I can’t wait to see how it goes.

Hope to see you there! 💕🛍️

✨ 1 Day to go!✨

I’ll be doing my first pop up event of the year tomorrow at the Dunelm Plymouth branch.
I’m aiming to be all set up and ready to go by 10:00 a.m., and I’ll be there until around 4:00 p.m.

If you’re nearby, I’d love for you to pop in, say hello, and browse my handmade pieces. Your support means the world! 💖🧶🖼️

Anyone else think this year has absolutely zoomed by? 😅 I can’t believe my first Christmas pop-up shop of the year at Dunelm Plymouth is coming up next week, on Saturday November 15th! 🎄✨

I’ll be back again on Saturday December 6th and Saturday December 13th, so if you’re local, pop in and say hi — I’d love to see some friendly faces! 💛

I’m really hoping I’ve got enough stock ready… crafting time has been in short supply lately with my little one keeping me on my toes 👶💗 but I’m so excited to finally share what I’ve managed to make!

Can’t wait to kick off the festive season! 🎅🎁

💛 Life update 💛

Hey everyone! I just wanted to pop on here and say a quick hello 👋
It’s been a little quiet on this page lately — I’ve been adjusting to life with a newborn, and as you can imagine, finding time (and energy!) for crafting has been tricky!

I’m really missing my creative time, but right now my hands are mostly full of bottles, nappies, and baby cuddles 💕
Thank you so much for your patience and support — I’ll be back sharing new creations as soon as I can. :)

✨ Hello lovely people! ✨
I just wanted to pop on here and say a big thank you for your patience — I know it’s been a little quiet on this page recently. The reason is a very special one… I welcomed my baby into the world last month 💕👶

It’s been a whirlwind of cuddles, sleepless nights, and adjusting to our new little family, so I haven’t had much time to create or post. I’ll be easing myself back into sharing my art here soon, but for now, I really appreciate you all sticking around and supporting me through this new chapter.

Much love, and I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been working on when I get the chance! 🎨🌸
