Felt Ornaments

I made a felt panel with some very soft colored gray wool this morning.  I wanted to get an idea of how much it would shrink so that I could use the wool to make some slippers.  After it dried, I decided to use the test panel to make some heart ornaments for the tree.  I like how simple they turned out...the next batch I will fill with the leftover lanvender that I ordered this past summer.

  3. Adorable! It makes sampling so much more fun when you can play with the results.

  4. Hi Kelly,

    Love how the hearts turned out! They look so warm. Just what we need right now (warm things) with the cold weather we are getting here in Florida! Brrrrr

  5. They are beautiful! My son and I are making loads of decor for the house this year. I decided that if I am going handmade, then we are going all the way! Say goodbye to the cheap crapola!!!!
