stunning
I love it. Also I made that
Your generosity in sharing your skills is a beautiful thing. You've touched so many lives with your talent. Thank you for being a light to others.❤
Oh goodness! Thank you for your kind words! ❤️
That really is so beautiful. There is a dark tulip that opens right out and shows the stamens this reminds me of.
Thank you! And that sounds beautiful!
That really is so beautiful
💕💕
That's just like your own florist beautiful colours and forms. Love the foliage.
Thank you so much!
Hi, please may I know where you got your soldering iron from?
Check out this link! amzn.to/4daGE49
Super!!❤
Thank you! 😃
That is exquisite. Is that using felt backed fabric . It gives it such realism and depth. Beautiful
Yes, it is! Check out my other video on how I did it!
Would you buy 18 gage floral wire with the green tape already on it?
Yes! Makes it a lot easier and faster.
Beautiful flowers. I've made several flowers but these are next level. Where do you source your felt sheets please
I sell all the felt I use on my website. www.thehardwoodforest.com/ I also have full tutorials showing how to make these on my youtube channel. Thank you for the comment!
Thank you for this video! Mine came with instructions in Russian, so yeah...this is very helpful!
Absolutely! I found it ridiculously hard to find any sort of instructions!
I'm genuinely blown away-excellent work!
Thank you!!
I can -buy- make myself flowers
Yes!!!🙌
So gorgeous. I appreciate the color palette ideas also.
Thank you! 😊
Do you add floral tape after you attach the stem to the flower:
I normally do not add extra tape! But do buy the green paper wrapped wires link in the description. That helps with not having to add extra tape but you totally could if you want to!
Essas flores ficaram lindas!
My channel is full of tutorials on how to make these! ❤❤❤ check it out!
What are the 45 flowers these shapes can make? Do you have a list? Thank you for your time.
honestly crafters seem really bad with safety, don't know why but it just tends to not be talked about much. I remember that at some point people pointed out that two part resins can be a little nasty before cured (esp with it being a sensitiser) and i was just surprised how resin was everywhere but no one has seemingly known any of this, while it was talked about a lot in the scale modeling communities i am in
Couldn’t agree more! It’s so easy to overlook being safe with crafting as most look at it as a hobby and take little to no time to really figure out what they are doing which can lead to lots of accidents! I know I made some silly mistakes especially with this tool so hopefully people will learn from my mistakes! I constantly want to jump in fast learning something new so safety is easy to overlook!
Ooh love this one x
Thank you! Me too!
Thx for sharing
Of course! More to come
예쁘네요 so beautiful ♥️ 😍 💖 Your rose flower is elegant 💓 ✨️ Thanks sharing 🙏 😊 감사합니다
Thank you so much!
It’s a very beautiful flower Lisa . We have missed your tutorial and did binge watching all of your videos while you were doing other stuff. Hope to see more exciting stuff coming soon ❤. Thank you for sharing
@@feltfloristsehllamalick2958 thank you so much for the support! Hopefully more coming soon! Just need to figure out how to clone ourselves! 😂
Where do I go to order the dies at? Is there a website for fabric only?
All the paper dies work on felt and fabric too! I get them on Amazon , spellbinders.com, sizzix.com eBay. Destasche pages on Facebook. Scrapbook.com. The steel ruled dies are getting harder to find unfortunately but you can still snag them on eBay and facebook.
I can’t believe this was you!! I saw the display at QuiltCon in February and it was one of my favorite things! I even pushed out of my comfort zone and took a selfie in front of it! Beautiful work!
Oh so glad you found me! How fun! So happy you loved the wall! It was such a fun project!
Warum zeigt man nicht die Masse. .
I'm just beginning to work with felt but had no idea how to make leaves and flowers. This will help me add them to my needle book in progress and I'll use the scraps to stuff a tiny little pincushion to add to the book. Thank you for taking the time to post this video.
Oh I love this so much! So happy to help! ❤️❤️
Would love to see more flowers that this set could create 😊
Yes! Totally planning on figuring out some more!
Why do you wear a hat indoors? 😂
Beacuse my husband told me too! 🥰🤪🤣 he likes the hats. So we went with it.
This short makes no sense. What are you talking about?
So the full length video is linked at the bottom, if you watch that I go through the entire process. Hope that helps!
Hi. I loved your video and can’t wait to make my first felt flower. Can you tell me what the felt colors were for the leaves, leaf base and the blue flower leaves? I thought you said “tea leaf” but I could not find that shade of blue at your shop. Thank you!
Thank you so much!! The leaves and base are in relish green and sadly that blue has been discontinued!! I was super bummed about it! But do have a few other blue options in my shop as well!
I just wanna say thank you for making this video. Very helpful! Keep posting.
You’re very welcome! Thanks for watching!
What size ball do you use for them?
It is a 20mm felt ball!
That's spectacular!! I'm thinking Christmas wreaths with a difference, shadow box hearts, headbands embellishments, Dog collar embellishments.....so many applications!
Sooooo many options! And definitely spices up your designs!
love it
Thank you!
Thanks for this! Do you happen to know whether Velcro sticks better to acrylic felt or wool felt? I'm trying to make a "felt board" for my kids that they can stick laminated illustrations to (with Velcro attached to the back). I tried flannel but it didn't work--the Velcro doesn't stick to it at all (I tried both sides just to be sure, lol). Thanks again.
Hello! Have you tried just backing the laminated pieces with felt? As on the felt boards felt sticks to felt. Just curious if that would work! Or if they would be too heavy at that point? Unfortunately after that I haven’t tried to see if Velcro would latch well. But it’s worth a try. I would however try the wool blend or wool felt. While the acrylic version also have lots of fibers for the Velcro to stick to i would be worried once those fibers got pulled on a bit with Velcro that they wouldn’t go back in place.
NM I found it 😂😊😂
I don’t see the curling iron that is similar just takes me to your supplies 😢
Glad you found it!
Ok, another video that doesn't show how to make the poppy. Click bait. Where exactly is the actual making of the flower itself? I'm going to someone else's videos.
Hey again! There’s only so much time in a short to teach. The whole point of shorts is to grab attention and push to the main video! If you click on the music icon of this short it will take you to the full video! Or a little more digging on channel and you can find many full length flower tutorials! 😝
I would never thought of modifying these dies. I do love my steel rule dies!
I love them too! And can be a little scary to permanently change them but definitely opens up possibilities!
me too, I still do not get why she did that:))))
Thumbs down. This is misleading. All you see is her winding a leaf around a stem over and over. She never shows you how to make a felt poppy.
Hey there! Just remember these are shorts so only limited time to show you how to make flowers. But the full video is on my channel. You can also click the music icon at the bottom of this video and it links to the full video. 😉.
Love it ❤️ Thank you 🤗
So happy you do! Thank you!
Instead of the "oh my goodness" maybe you could actually give us a tip...but I suppose I need to watch your next video 😁🩷🩷
These are just shorts to push you to the full video! Catch that on my channel or use the link on the music icon!
Hi, can you do this with acrylic felt, or does it have to be pure wool?
This needs to be either a wool blend felt or 100% wool. If you’re using 100% wool then you will need to heat longer for it to penetrate the fibers. But still works! The acrylic felt will just melt unfortunately.
🌸🌹🌷 you have talent
Thank you so much!
HELP ME PLSSSSSS I used felt for a mask and then I painted it with crayola and acrylic paints and it smells horrible! It’s been 4 months and it still smells bad pls help!!
Woah that’s crazy that it smells! What kind of felt is it? And is the smell coming from the paint or the felt? Sadly may have to just start over! Definitely shouldn’t smell!
@@TheHardwoodForest polyester I think and It’s the paint but I tried 2 diff kinds of paint with the same felt and it smells bad still ): I asked someone in my neighborhood and they said the felt may be having a comical reaction and to buy wool felt instead but that also smells bad when painted ):
What is the name of the alternative mat?
There is a link in the description!
This is beautiful!...how to make these?😓😓
Thank you so much!
I am currently making myself a flower crown from wool for my Birthday Month! completely improvising, while cutting my wool - I had a lot of time for my mind to wander - I got a bit curious about how other people do their felt flower, so I found your video and I already cut my shape s before hand so - it was just out of curiosity. I discovered that the shapes that I made up can be shaped in so many different ways, and that was very exciting idea to play with! So thank you for that. 🌸🌼🌻✨🌈😊
That’s so awesome! I love that!
