felted slippers from kit

Kristen Gagnon of Alaska shows off her truly fabulous wet felted slippers!
We love the color blending and the sweet needle felted designs.

"My first ever wet felted slippers!! Sooooo fun. I embellished them with some needle felted ' willow ptarmigan'
(our cutest winter visitor here in Yellowknife) after learning to needle felt with one of your kits recently.
I am in love with felting! Thank you!! I used wet felting slipper kit [berries & purples],
merino cross batt packs (fall fun, primary)."

From all of us at Living Felt,
we speak from our hearts and say,
Thank You.
needle felted acorns

Thank you for trusting in us, for sharing with us, and for showing us your brilliant,
creative spark. We are sincerely grateful to be doing this work, to be of service to you,
and to be facilitators in your creative journey.

We cherish the feeling of that moment in which we see the "spark" in another
spring to life with renewed excitement, self confidence and joy. Sometimes we are fortunate enough
to meet you in person, sometimes it is just by phone,
sometimes it is by email, and sometimes it is in the comments of your order...but we feel it all the same.
We work for this every day, and it is our sincere honor to do so.
Thank you for being part of our creative family.

As always, we wish you happy felting, and let us know
if you have any questions or need any support by emailing us at
[email protected]

With Love,
All of Us :O)

by us for superior felting using both needle felting and wet felting techniques.

The color variations will give you many shades for the detail
and realism you desire in your creations.

We know you will love them! BIO-PROCESSED and washed.
This Living Felt wool was processed and washed using a bio-degradable,
Eco-Friendly soap and earth-friendly process. NO chemicals used.
Small amounts of vegetable matter in the wool is common and to be expected.

Brenda Haegner of TX just started needle felting!
After the needle felting class she planned to attend in her town
was canceled more than once, she decided to get started
on her own and called us up. Armed with 3 kits for needle felting a bird,
she and her 9yr old daughter took to the kits and the free turkey tutorial and
cranked out a bundle of needle felted characters...these are just a few
from their first weekend of felting!

She is off and running with more supplies in her studio
for new adventures in wet and needle felting!

Just by sharing her picture...
Brenda Wins a $25 Gift Certificate to LivingFelt.com!
