A Four Letter "F" word....Felt

I'm getting ready for a Betz White e-workshop in felt
and so I tried making these

I love them!


Little felt beads



Soft,


Unassuming


A little hairy


but bright



Just like some of my favorite people!


Also felted soap.
Love the colours
so tactile
and good for the dirty birds I know.

    Hi spectacularfairywren! Felt balls could NOT be easier to make. There may be a better way to make them 'perfect', but seriously, they are just felt balls! Take about a palm full of wool, dip in warm soapy water and squish. Keep squishing and rolling. All this combined Voila! Add more felt to cover up cracks or to enlarge your balls. If you have really enlarged balls...go see a doctor (tee hee)
