Filcano darilo - Felted gift

Starejši hčerki sem za rojstni dan naredila darilce iz naravno - rastlinsko barvane volne (le zelena je sintetična). Tokrat sem poleg mokrega filcanja uporabila tudi suho filcanje z iglo za številko, cvetko, listke in bunkice. I made a birthday gift for my elder daughter. I used natural dyed wool except for the green which is synthetic. Beside wet felting I also used needle felting technique to make the digits, the flower, leaves and beads.

Its very beautiful Ladka.

I bought a book on making felt hats and it mentions using a certain paste to stiffen the felt to hold a shape. Is that how you have achieved this shape?

(PS, I'm not sure what type of tree it is in the background. The tree is in my grandparents garden. I will be spending Christmas with them so will find out then). xJ

Oooo, kako prisrčno! Tukaj pa zelena prav nič ne moti. To je neke vrste šatuljica?

To je bilo darilce za Ireno, z dodatkom iz Qulandie. Je pa kot nekak narobe obrnjen klobuček.
