Hello my fellow Etys friends,
Follow me on Facebook! Search - Smart Twin Art. I love to post ongoing project pictures and updates of local art activities with my work and the blueberry patch art action.
Handmade Merino Felt is a fantastic, soothing body feel for your skin.
Color is motivating, memorable, & addictive. I am promoting color addiction because it's easy to the eye & so mentally stabilizing!
95% of my shipping is only a 1st Class mail rate.
Do YOU want to TRACK YOUR Etsy product from me for any AMERICA delivery? If so, I will need an EXTRA .90 cents to track 1st class. International tracking does not exist.
YOU American deliveies must decide to add tracking. It does force the post office to NOT LOOSE the package! Haa Haa...
NOTE: The U.S. Priority mail, at or over $4.95, has got some sort of built in insurance but NOT tracking for loss of package!
SO WE STILL must ADD 90 cents IF you feel like knowing that the shipment is NOT LOST somewhere in AMERICA.
INTERNATIONAL tracking does NOT EXIST... ONLY insurance of the package is possible. So I will bill you EXTRA IF you choose to insure your parcel.
I have learned all this info. after shipping since opening my Etsy store!
PLEASE Enjoy my Handmade COLORFUL & AFFORDABLE wool supply products:
Balls are so lightweight that they will float on water also!
WET FELT Balls have 2 Color Silk Infusion
SIZE costs for 4 needle or wet felt balls:
BIG KID Regular - 26 mm - 32mm (1.22 inch)
$4.50 for 4 = $1.12 per ball, (10 grams)
-------------------
BIG MID Medium - 33 mm - 38mm (1.44 inch)
$5.50 for 4 Balls = $1.37 per ball, (12 grams)
-------------------
BIG MOM Large - 38 mm - 43mm (1.55 inch)
$10.00 for 4 Balls = $2.50 per ball, (15- 20 grams)
_____________________________________________
All SMALLER Balls with Silk Infusion = .85 per ball
A dime is 17.5 mm, about 5/8 inch = a regular gum ball size + extra
A penny is 18.8 mm, about 3/4 inch = a blue bird egg size
A nickel is 21.1 mm, about 7/8 inch = a red fire ball jaw breaker
A quarter is 24 mm, about 1 inch! = a regular large sized gum ball
- So once again the SMALLER Balls cost only $.85
- My 12 Ball Sale = $10.20
WEIGHT FACT: 4 OZ (1/4pound) = 113 grams, 2 sushi BEADS average about 1.5 grams in weight. These float on water & very, very, slowly moisture absorbs and they still float. They do not sink! Same with the wet felted balls! The density factor is the reason for this.
SUSHI rolls measure 1/4 inch in thickness.
The $4 Value on Sushi size range:
10 PETITE sushi roll beads, 10mm-13+mm diameter round
-like a thumb nail size!
8 AVERAGE sushi roll beads, 14mm-17+mm diameter round
-like a dime is 17.5 mm
6 LARGE sushi roll beads, 18mm-19+mm diameter round
-like a penny is 18.8 mm
4 MAMBO sushi roll beads, 20mm-23+mm diameter round

3 XL-MAMBO sushi roll beads, 24mm-25+mm diameter round
-like a quarter is 24 mm
2 XXL-MAMBO sushi roll beads, 26mm + diameter round
- like a 50 cent piece size which measures 30 mm wide.
