Made from your photos.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSend us a few photos of your dog or cat and our artist recreates their head and shoulders in wool, one needle stroke at a time: the eyes, the markings, the way their ears sit. It is not a plush toy. It is a portrait you can hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you receive\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA head-and-shoulders portrait of your pet, front paws included, needle-felted in wool and mounted in a solid wood frame — ready for a shelf or wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePacked in a kraft gift box, shipped worldwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it is made\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaw wool is barbed into shape by hand with a felting needle — no printing, no moulds, no AI image generation. Colour is built up in layers rather than painted on, which is why markings, shading and the direction a coat grows can all be matched to your photos. A single portrait takes days of work at the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the frame\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame is not a selectable option — our artist picks the frame that best suits your pet’s colouring and size from the styles in stock. The framed examples in the photos show the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat photos to send\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWool is three-dimensional, so we need to see them from more than the front. Send 3–6 photos if you have them:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFace straight on, at eye level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft and right side of the head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA close-up of the eyes and nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne full-body photo in daylight, for true fur colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharp, well-lit phone photos are perfect. One clear photo where you can see the eyes will always do more than several distant or blurry ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe look at every photo before work begins.\u003c\/strong\u003e If we need another angle to get their face right, we will write to you and ask — we would rather delay a few days than make something that does not look like your pet. If they are gone and you only have a few photos, send what you have. We will tell you honestly whether it is enough to get their face right before we start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpload your photos above and tell us your pet’s name. If some will not fit, reply to your order confirmation email with them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe confirm your estimated completion date after you order.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe send you a progress photo before the final details go on, so nothing is a surprise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished by hand, packed and shipped.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the wait\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease allow 2–6 months.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a long time and we would rather say so plainly than surprise you later. Our artist works through a waiting list and each portrait is made one at a time by one pair of hands — there is no second production line we can move you to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are working to a date — a birthday, an anniversary, the first year without them — write to us before you order and we will tell you honestly whether it can be met. If it cannot, we will say so rather than take the order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIf you are ordering after a loss\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany of these are made for pets who are already gone. You do not need to explain anything to us when you order — just the photos and the name. If there is something you would like us to know, there is a note field, and a person reads it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy more than one photo?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA front photo does not show the side of the ears, the shape of the muzzle or the markings on the back of the head. Those are what make the wool look like them, not just like their breed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHandmade, so not identical\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery portrait is worked by hand from natural wool. Two portraits made from the same photos would not come out exactly alike, and the piece you receive will have small variations from the examples shown. That is the nature of the material and the method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Furmento","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48961344766070,"sku":"YLS-NF-BUST-FRAME","price":419.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/5467\/6598\/files\/needle_felt_1_1_122eb21d-2dfc-4815-bc7f-d3edf3418b77.jpg?v=1791268221","url":"https:\/\/furmento.com\/products\/custom-needle-felted-pet-portrait-framed-from-your-photo","provider":"Furmento","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
