About Felted Jewelry

Felted beads are hand rolled, by a process called felting. 100% wool fiber is manipulated by hand with hot soapy water. By rolling and squeezing out the water, and then continuously rinsing and rolling again, a firm ball is finally formed. This ball is a uniform belted bead which is then dried and used for my jewelry creations. Sometimes I hand sew little glass seed beads to the felted beads before I string them up into jewelry.

It's not unusual for a little fuzz strand to stick out from the felted beads. It's part of the look! However, if there is a fuzz strand that is bothersome, it's easy enough to snip it off with scissors.

It's best not to get felted jewelry wet, as it may alter the shape, or weaken the threads used for sewing glass seed beads.

Felted jewelry is unique, funky and best of all VERY comfortable to wear, as it's soft and lightweight. It's a joy to wear this unique type of jewelry, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
