Unusual Easter Gift - tuffets vs chocolate!

Take a really good look at the letters!! Fine sheepdog work!! 

                 The spring is sprung; the fleece are ris'

                 I wonder where dem tuffets is?

Easter is nearly upon us and what could be better for that unusual eco- easter gift than a tuffet to delight the derriere whilst enjoying the warm rays of the sun? Chocolate is so over-rated, tasty yet gone in a flash! Whereas the effects of the chocolate can sit unwantedly on the hips for some time to come, with the eco-friendly wool cushion, lovingly known as the tuffet it is the hips that can linger in comfort whilst others look on longingly at your ever-lasting deliciously sheepy sustainable gift of luxury! Practical, comfortable, affordable and versatile - all this from the humble sheep!!

Tents and tuffets- the perfect camping seat!

Reading Festival. readingfestivalcamping.co.uk

Festival season is around the corner and what better than an eco-friendly camping mat in the form of a wool tuffet.The beneficial properties come in to their own on the campsite - soft and warm in cool weather when the tuffet becomes a natural insulator,  yet in hot weather the tuffet conducts moisture away from the body to keep you cool and well, actually is there anything better than being cool at a festival?
Tuffets are lightweight, easily rolled (or squished), washable, water resistant and generally deliciously sheepy!

When there is no room for a camping chair or you have to track long distances from car to tent why carry a cumbersome chair or a bulky cushion when you can easily roll a tuffet and tie it to your rucksack or even wear it as a fashionable festival hairpiece!

So, the tuffet reaches new heights as the tuffet  toupée is born, maybe not the most realistic but definitely brings a certain something to the wearer!! 

Meditation on a natural fibre tuffet?

Modern day life leaves many of us feeling  stressed and over-worked, a short 10 - 15 minutes meditation can calm the mind and leave you feeling unstressed and more focused on the good things in life. The eco-friendly wool  tuffet may be used as the perfect lightweight natural fibre meditation mat allowing contact with the stress relieving  wool  fibres to provide true bottom heaven for the derriere! 

It is important to be able to sit upright in comfort to avoid any undue physical pressure and to avoid added tension. Ideally it is better to have the back of the wool meditation mat slightly raised to enable the pelvis to be slightly tipped forward - this is simply achieved by rolling the edge of the mat to give the perfect position for you. 

 The combination of a single focus perhaps running water in the garden, the call of songbirds or the ringing tones of a Tibetan singing bowl with the natural properties of a wool tuffet is the perfect relaxation for a tired and stressed mind and body.

What better than moving from a tired state to an energised state with the help of a lightweight, rollable, sustainable and washable  eco-friendly tuffet? The natural  wool meditation tuffet could be the new meditation mat of today!!

Eco-friendly wool seat-pads - Tuffets for benches and conservatory seating!

Spring is definitely closer, beautiful harvest moons, frosty mornings and sunny days - the garden is beckoning for tuffets, for you to come and sit and enjoy the spring warmth and sounds of the songbirds - chaffinches actually do sing 'tuffit, tuffit'! The new Titan Tuffets  can be made to any length you require up 7' (possibly longer on request) and are the perfect accompaniment to a garden bench to allow the experience of true eco-friendly sustainable comfort!
The Fowey wooden garden bench below is wonderfully made by the Sustainable Furniture Company based in Hewaswater in Cornwall. The Titan tuffet can be made to 4'6 in length (prices start at £12.50  per square foot for a natural white fleece tuffet) to give true bottom heaven for hours at a time!

Perhaps your garden is not so large, or maybe it is, then you may prefer the comfort of a chair instead. The 4' Titan Tuffet may be placed to cover the seat and back to provide the ultimate in warmth and comfort to provide a natural wool eco-friendly seat pad and back rest - ideal if sitting for long periods of time! The  Sustainable Furniture Company also produce a wonderful woodland chair that is featured below!

This may sound like a promotion for The Sustainable Furniture Company.....................and why not! Excellent sustainable furniture made in Cornwall! What could be better than eco-friendly bench 'cushions' to perfectly harmonise with quality sustainable furniture?

I have used these as an example but personally I enjoy the tuffets equally when sat upon fallen tree trunks, sat on a piece of granite on the moor, on an old sleeper or simply sat on the grass - Happy Tuffeting every-one!

Eco-packaging for Tuffets

Eco-packaging

The Tuffeteer supports the recycling of materials as absolutely essential for our environment. To demonstrate this belief the Tuffeteer has taken the example of an excellent eco-friendly cosmetic company, Green Spirit Bazaar, in that all posted items will come in recycled/re-used packaging! Cardboard boxes will be re-used - if you order a tuffet and think that you have a box of bananas then look again! All plastic wrapping will be experiencing a second life in an attempt to shun the corporate demands of today!!
So, to all my customers - please enjoy the tuffet from nature, packaged with the care of the environment in mind, and enjoy bottom heaven with a sense of pride!

Spring is hiding just below the surface just bursting withthe life of sleepy bulbs and blooms whilst waiting for the loving care of the gardener of the house. The gardener will spend many hours on bended knees which in time could become tired and sore but this could all be avoided with the loving caress of a kneeler tuffet. Yes it's true!  The popular wool tuffet will double as a kneeler to soothe the knees and protect from damp with all the beneficial properties that is to be found with this wonderful natural fibre.
The lightweight tuffet is so versatile that with a slight of the hand it can be instantly transformed into a wonderfully wooly eco-friendly cushion to add comfort to the garden seat on which you may sit and enjoy a well-deserved cup of tea!
