In this article, we will unveil the origine and benefits of felt shapes, and explore how they can elevate your DIY endeavors and bring a personalized touch to your home decor!
What is Felt and What can we use it for?
The term "felt" comes from the German word "Filz" and refers to the process of making items from wool, as well as the items themselves.
Felt is a soft fabric suitable for making clothes, accessories, various decorations, jewelry, and more!
Felt is one of the oldest fabric production methods known to humanity, predating even weaving and knitting! It was known in ancient times, with preserved clothes, hats, and carpets dating back 2500-2600 years.
Interestingly, over the past 10-15 years, felt has experienced a real boom worldwide. The demand for felt products has greatly increased, and it has started to be used as a material for various craft and hobby projects.
The felt shapes and appliques available here are created by pressing the felt, followed by cutting and shaping them into the desired two-dimensional forms. Once crafted, these felt shapes can be utilized individually or combined by adhering a few basic shapes together to form more colorful and intricate decorative figures. Whether used separately or in combination, both types of felt shapes and figures add a charming touch to any DIY project or decoration!
Material Composition
Felt is a gentle fabric manufactured by matting and pressing wool under steam or hot water. It can also be created from 100% synthetic fibers or a blend of animal and plant fibers. As felt is produced without the weaving of pre-spun threads, it falls under the category of non-woven textiles.
Modern technologies now allow the creation of felt fabrics that perfectly mimic natural ones. These felt fabrics, whether synthetic or organic, have very similar properties, and it can sometimes be difficult to tell them apart, so burning is used as a test method when needed.
High-quality felt production is possible only due to the high quality of the wool. The most commonly used wool is sheep wool, but there is also felt made from llama or camel wool.
There are several techniques for processing felt, including pressing under steam and matting under water. The most common method, however, is needle felting. In this technique, dry wool processing is applied using a sponge as a base and a special felting needle to shape the wool into the desired form. In the wet felting method, the felt is processed using water and homemade soap dissolved in it.
Applications and Uses of Felt Shapes
From this wonderful material, not only clothes are created but also various accessories such as brooches, hats, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, scarves, bags, belts, keychains, coasters, children’s toys, home decorations, and many more!
When making different decorations and accessories, felt can be layered by attaching one sheet to another by sewing, gluing, or needle felting. For even greater effect, you can combine felt with other decorative materials like buttons, beads, stones, and more, depending on the effect you want to achieve.
Applications of acrylic felt are many, such as crafting felt cutouts in shapes for albums or scrapbooking projects, modeling bags, baskets, quiet books for kids, and more!
Working with felt is effortless and enjoyable; it can be easily cut with scissors, making it ideal for children’s crafting activities.
For working with felt sheets, you will need scissors, templates, or punches, which you will find in the Art Supplies and Tools and Packaging sections. And for the modeling itself, you can use threads, sewing needles, or needle felting needles.
One of the great advantages of felt is that its production process helps prevent issues like fabric fraying or snagging, contributing to its durability and usability.
When working with felt, it is best to use acrylic glue, which you will also find in the Tools and Packaging category.
The applications of the basic felt shapes and the embellished felt figures are endless, you can use them to decorate gift wraps, cards, children’s birthday invitations, albums, notebooks, organizers, and many more.
Unleash your creativity and spread joy to those around you, including the little ones, by incorporating these charming decorative felt shapes and figures into your projects and ideas!
