Etsy Finds: Felt So Good


Story by TeenAngster Published on May 4, 2009 in Spotlight	Photo by Stichedup

So, Etsy has the most amazing stuff that you just can't find anywhere else (if you didn't already know). I had no idea of the range of styles and creations that could possibly be created with a material such as, oh, let's say felt. If there is one medium that produces the most wacky, beautiful and unique things, it is totally felt. Here are some recent felt sculpture discoveries.

Bunny Rabbit 42 Feltidermy

Girlsavage has the feltidermy (faux taxidermy made of felt!) market on lockdown. Check out this wee one! $45.

Isabelle Guesnon - Felt Sculpture - Littlebird Dreams

This sculpture makes me so happy. If only we all had little bird friends to help us fly! By Feltathome, $65.

Frida Kahlo Mouse

The details on this Frida mouse are just too spot on. The unibrow! Amazing! By TheHouseOfMouse, $40.

Cute!! I especially love the animals and sushi! Very creative!

I absolutely -love- joycemac634's felted things in her shop! Cutest little mice, and cacti, and flowerpots! Some of the things she posts as pincushions, but they're just as adorable by themselves!

Incredible felt finds! The mono-brow Frida was a treat, and the sandwich looks almost good enough to eat. Great collection of beautiful and fun things.

May 4, 2009 at 12:58 p.m.

atomicblue

Ah yes. Felt is a multi textural wonder of the world. I've been felting for 5 years now...and recently have become enamored with my drum carder and the batts I can make to felt from it. Spectacular to say! I personally dig the felt sandwich.

May 4, 2009 at 1:04 p.m.

missindie

hahahaha that sandwich is cracking me up!

Thinkoutsidethebox

Wow! Feltfarm and Feltathome..two new favorites for me..I adore felt and use it in much of my work..it is very forgiving and allows you to be very creative as it is easy to manipulate...

I love how you have incorporated both the regular felting with the needle felting world..There are so many very talented felting artists here on Etsy of which I've had the pleasure to meet and know many of them. Couldn't ask for a better and more fun group of artists! Great article..and how fricken cute is that 'fat cat'?!

I LOVE the felt food! I used to work at a daycare and I hate all of the plastic food toys. I think fabric ones that can be thrown in the wash would be awesome.
