Felt is made of wool that has been compressed with heat and agitation. You can make your own felt easily, in your bath tub or outside.Once you have made a piece of felt, it can be shaped, cut or sewn into any number of different items.
Following the directions for making felt, make a 15" square piece. This will shrink to approx. 12' square. Trace the outline of your boots onto a piece of paper, and use this as a pattern for cutting your boot liner.
Christmas OrnamentsStart with a piece of dry, handmade felt.The felt can be cut into shapes - cookie cutters are useful for this. Just like with the "store bought" kind, you can safely cut the felt. You can add decorative stitching around the felt pieces and embellish them with sequins, embroider with brightly coloured yarns or sew on some rick rack or other braiding.
