Felted
wool is in vogue as an appealing fabric for fashion garments. Its
bright colors, tactile appeal, and versatility also make it an ideal
jewelry medium. Adding smooth, shiny, or matte embellishments - beads
and buttons, for example - to the mix can produce fabulous creations.
The techniques section shows you how to roll felt balls and beads,
needle felt, and even how to use bubble wrap as a form to create unique
shapes. Plus, there's plenty of information about making jewelry,
from stringing objects together on cords to what findings to use.
For added inspiration, this collection includes a gallery of the best
work by international artists.
