Using Effect Fibres in Wet Felting

This @teesdalefelt video tutorial looks at different effect fibres that can be used to enhance pictures when wet felting. After looking at various effect fibres, demonstrations will be given on how these can be added to a picture before it it wet felted. Some fibres behave differently when they are wet felted and tips will be given on how to lay them out and in some cases anchor them to the picture.

What a delightful video! Thank you. I could sit and watch you for hours. I am going on a two-evening course next month to learn to make wet felted pictures and this has really inspired me. I have subscribed and am going to take a look now to see what other work you do……..and I hope you show how to secure nepps to your work! I’ve had a little try with some and just managed to decorate a felting needle! 😂

[@TeesdaleFelt]

You are very kind and I am so pleased you have enjoyed my videos! Nepps are pretty frustrating to use sometimes. When laying out your picture add a very fine layer of wool to secure them. If they fall off after felting I sometimes give them a squirt of strong hold hairspray. X

Oh where do you buy the wool ~ neps?~ if thats how you say it?~ as iv been making felt,fibres, n adding to clothes 🥰😍👍

[@TeesdaleFelt]

Hi. Nepps are widely available from wool suppliers online. I sell them at Teesdale Felt but in the UK I am afraid. X

[@sandrapaterson1750]

Can you list the fibers you describe in this video?

[@TeesdaleFelt]

Yes of course. Within the video are woollen nepps (small balls to represent flowers and snow etc.), mulberry silk, sari silk, angelina fibre, merino mixed with stellina fibre, Wensleydale curly locks, lace and handspun yarn. These can all be purchased at my website or on line if you do a google search. Thank you so much for watching my video. x

[@debishaw9355]

Do you wet felt those into your scarf or needle felt them?

[@TeesdaleFelt]

I normally wet felt these fibres but the can be needle felted. The mulberry silk reacts really well when wet felting as it crinkles up. Thank you for asking. X
