Felted Inspirations

February 23rd, 2010 by Gwynn | Posted in General News, New Items |

Don’t know how many of you caught the Felted Stone segment on Martha Stewart which aired before Valentines Day but these Felted Stone Soaps are all the rage. We have sold lots of fiber to people who felt soap but these are the first rocks we’ve seen! And aren’t they great! Here are the ones Kendra felted for the shop. Felted soap is a perfect natural exfoliant and making them is a piece of cake. Complete written instructions and a how-to video can be found on Martha Stewart’s website here..

We have made fiber kits, Felted Soap Stones Fiber Pack especially for the stones which include an ounce each of three colors and a small amount of white for embellishment. This amount will make 1 to 2 dozen soap stones depending on size and amount of felt used for each. We chose Harrisville Dyed and Carded Wool fiber for these kits but there are other options:
