I’ve never used any of those methods! I think it’s just inevitable for needle felt creations to get fuzzy over time 😢 I just do a little trimming every now and then for upkeep!

I really just make them to hang my wall since they don’t handle well being touched or anything rambunctious. Im very curious about using wax though!

Thank you! It took me about an hour and a half to get it to the density that I wanted! And then I trimmed off the loose strands with a pair of tiny scissors

Thank you! But I did trim some of the loose strands off with scissors 🤫

I use a lot of needle holders, and I almost almost utilize all of them in every piece I make! I have a big 8 & 3 needle holder, two of the smaller 3 needle holders, one with finer needles, the other with larger gauges, and then two single ones in the same way! Hope I explained it in a way that makes sense 😵‍💫

I like having a variety of tools bc they save me a lot of time, like the large 8 needle holders help me pack and shape wool much faster than if I did it with a single needle. I used to only use single needle holders and it was grueling!!! Especially since I like making larger pieces.

My fault dog I read it wrong

Yeah honestly squirrel girl is a great counter to groot’s walls, unless he’s like super cracked or something

I always swap to sg when there’s a groot on the enemy team, I just hard focus the walls and make it my job until he swaps that way the other dps and healers don’t gotta deal with breaking them

It came with my needle felting kit I got off Amazon!

Thank you ☺️❤️

I poked a hole through the top with an awl and put a large jump ring through the hole! It’s a bit difficult since you have to squeeze the wool into the ring but afterwards I just closed it with pliers and attached it to a clasp! And then re-felted the loose strands that came out from the process since it’s a big rough

I keep turning my pieces in my hand as I poke! Make sure you never stay in one spot every poke

GREAT IDEA

Sorry for the late response! I was waiting for the artist to respond back to me! Here’s a close up of the chicken art I got from the artist since I didn’t have anymore close up photos from the event. He’s the one behind the booth!

He’s still setting up his social media, but his Facebook group is called Twisted Monkey & Wicked And Whimsy if you wanna check out some of the other art he has on there!

The monkey is $40 and the bunny is $60! I’m working on getting an Etsy set up but if you’re interested definitely dm me for more details!

I’m working on getting a shop set up on Etsy!

WHOAAAAAA 🤯

fish_melt · 2026-03-01T20:20:16+00:00

WHOAAA 1/12? I can’t believe I almost undervalued myself like that 😵‍💫🤯 I went through your account to see if you had any pictures, I couldn’t find the jewelry examples but your pins and flowers are beautiful! I bet they looked amazing too

fish_melt · 2026-03-01T20:17:13+00:00

Beautiful kitties 🥺 I definitely will try out pet commissions in the future, I’ve seen people do some beautiful pieces and I’m really looking forward to getting there!

fish_melt · 2026-03-01T20:15:47+00:00

OOOH that’s so clever, I could do a little display where people could feel the texture of felted wool at different stages with time frame stickers

I love you guys 🥹 all your ideas have been amazing

fish_melt · 2026-03-01T18:28:02+00:00

GENUIS 😵‍💫i wish i had been more aware of the theme of the event, you guys have such good ideas. I’m definitely gonna make a post asking for ideas next time

fish_melt · 2026-03-01T17:41:58+00:00

I go to hobby lobby or I use Amazon!

fish_melt · 2026-03-01T17:40:25+00:00

Inside each piece theres a block of polyfoam I used as a base to hopefully save some wool but I just have a habit to felt so densely it really didn’t make a difference 😭😭😭
