Just fascinating 😮❤ I may have to try this

It's very unique! I find it to be very forgiving and really fun!

[@smiller5603]

sloth is my fav, one. so real like....wish there was a video to make one! awesome works!

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Thank you!

[@remina8205]

Wow this is exactly what i've been looking for! Thank you! ^^

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Excellent! I am glad to hear that!

[@larafarley4701]

This video is super helpful, thank you!

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

I am so glad to hear that!

[@redbarron1010]

Absolutely beautiful work! And a great video too! Can you tell me how you got the bottom of the cats paws to look like pads?

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

The black cat? On that one I made clay paw pads from polymer clay. On many of my others they were just sculpted from wool.

[@sonofhibbs4425]

AMAZING work! That cat! Better than taxidermy! Thank you for the tips too! I was just wondering last night how this effect was done.

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Helena3038]

How do you do the eyes?

[@gillinacook1477]

These are fantastic! When the finished product sits on a shelf, how do you prevent it collecting dust? Can they be cleaned?

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

They probably cannot be easily cleaned. They would be best in a glass cabinet.

[@peachypaws9664]

your channel is absolutely amazing! I just found out about needle felting and it looks awesome! Challenging...but awesome! I totally wanna try this sometime ^^

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Thank you! You should, it is really neat!

[@deberlycaballero9509]

I am Colombian I love your work and I want to start learning please could you tell me what those wools are called please

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Perhaps the best way might be to have a look at one of my full length tutorials here on my channel. In the video descriptions (if you click on the little arrow to fully expand the text of the video description) there will be links that take you directly to some of the exact wools I use in my projects. But in general, I use "core wool" for the main shape of the sculpture, dyed "wool batt" for the rest of the sculpting and details, and "wool roving" anywhere I need long hair or fur on a sculpture. Hope this helps! Best of luck! 😊

[@rosemaryrolfe5050]

Fabulous thank you

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Thank you!

[@hopemakesvideos]

Where do you buy your wool and needles? Thank you!

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

I get them from various places, primarily on Esty. But in most of my tutorials I include links to the products I used. You have to click on the video description to expand it to see all of the information. Hope that helps!

[@ColorMeErin]

Hi! Your Work is AMAZING!! I'm SO Envious, but this Video was Helpful! Quick Question: Where did Buy the Sloth Claws & the Cat/Dog Toe Beans & Foot Pads?? They're such a Realistic Touch!!! I Figured I'd ask bc I wouldn't even know where to begin w/ the Wording, in Order to Find these Things. Thank you so much in Advance! Take Care! - Erin

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Thank you so much 😀 I actually made those pieces from polymer clay.

[@candacecole5885]

are those glass eyes / and do you felt them in ?

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Some are glass cabochons, some are acrylic safety eyes. I glue them in and felt wool eyelids over/around the eyes.

[@kazuki_setsunai103]

What type of eyes did u use and do u have a link for amazon if amazon has them?

[@sonofhibbs4425]

Check out taxidermy supply stores online.

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

I have some links in the video description of my newer video (shadowbox red tabby cat portrait) here on my channel :)

[@butterfly-iu5ig]

I would love to start felting this tutorial is very helpful. Thank you.

[@whereismymind9429]

this is not a tutorial , it is pics of fully finished works not showing the process

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

I am glad to hear it. I have a few tutorials up on my channel. Good luck on your projects!

[@eyetech1975]

Where do you get the eyes nose and claws?

[@DianaGutierrez-pc7zg]

Any luck finding the nose?

[@eyetech1975]

Diana Gutiérrez no. 😒

[@cairafreer3932]

I heard someone say the use polymer clay to make their noses. I’ve seen others felt them and then paint them to look more realistic.

[@238Tina1]

I would make the nose out of polymer clay and seal it with a varnish. And the eyes are custom glass eyes or flat back glass cabachons. From the looks of it atleast!! I hope this helps someone.

[@sonofhibbs4425]

Typically the artist sculpts them themselves. Sometimes you can find parts at taxidermy stores.

[@MIA-oh3vv]

Omg I'm so happy found your channel! I've been planning to get into needle felting for some time now and my end goal is to be able to make realistic felt dolls of my cats! I'd love to see a tutorial on how you made the black cats someday - I'm going to be following your other tutorials first though, they seem more doable for a beginner like me XD!

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Awesome! Best of luck to you-- most importantly , have fun!

[@M_A_R_I.]

Чудо !!!!! 👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹💝

[@kpop_multistan4228]

I have recently started needle felting, so far I have made a panda🐼 and a koala 🐨. I hope one day I am good enough at it to create something like this👍

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

You can do it! Have fun!

[@jurdski]

Omg that’s so realistic I thought the cat on the video was real T^T

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Thank you!

[@myoldfarmhouse4316]

how many hours does it take poking at wool to make that Sloth?

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

I don't remember specifically, but most take me 15-20 hours. Some as long as 40...

[@manuelal4705]

Echt gut gemacht wie echt sehen sie aus

[@anpa5243]

Amazing work! Do you have your first projects? How long did you take to get to this point in the craft? Still looks so hard, to try

[@kreationsbykrysta2134]

Thank you! Yes, you can see every item I've ever needle felted if you go to my Facebook page. You can scroll down to the very beginning-- my work has changed a lot since the beginning!

[@asitbarandas5921]

Very cute but এই জিনিসগুলির নাম কী
