I bought a thousand 2 cm felt balls from Napal. They are nice and firm and great quality but when I received them they were 2.7 cm. 2 cm to 2.7 cm is a huge difference for the project I'm working on. Will you be my savior and help me with a solution on how I can resize these to 2 cm? 🙏🏼🤞🏼

Hi! This was just what I was looking for. I want to make centerpieces for my wedding. I love yellow pom poms in colorful vases. I love wool felting so I feel this could be a nice fun craft

@TamarasJoyDIY 2 года назад

That sounds beautiful!!! And congratulations 💛

@lorenarios2113 4 года назад

Thank you for the video, I wonder why my felt balls has a line gap on them, like a folding line? I’m I doing something wrong?

@TamarasJoyDIY 4 года назад

Sometimes I will end up with one ball with cracks. Make sure the roving is pulled thin before you roll it and then roll the ball as tight as you can with your fingers first it will help avoid the big cracks. Also when rolling the last section i try to spread it around the ball. I find the chance for deep cracks lesson this way. If you still end up with a small crack you can massage it out with the warm soapy water and rub it with your fingers during the rolling process. But alas....sometimes you will get a stubborn one and then I just move on😉 the more you make the easier it gets! I promise💜

@annbandstra5087 4 года назад

I’ve always wanted to try this, thank you for the great tutorial

@TamarasJoyDIY 4 года назад

Your welcome! Tell me how it goes💝 I have been having fun playing around with roving. I even made the boys stuffies!

@gerryarmstrong3518 2 года назад

I'm wondering if you could do a tutorial on velvet baubles for the Christmas tree? I believe they must be some kind of paint or something because I can't see a seam anywhere. Anyway I loved this tutorial and plan to try my hand at it. I'm just not clear why you want water in them. Doesn't it eventually evaporate? What happens then? Thank you, Gerry

@TamarasJoyDIY 2 года назад

Sorry Gerry, I don’t do too much with felt these days. The water helps you get the felt ball to stay dense. Hope that helps.

@notashroom Год назад

Water and soap, particularly hot/warm water, makes the rough surface of the individual fibers catch on one another and hold together. It's like accidentally washing a wool sweater on hot and having it shrink up on you in the wash. Once it's felted, the water is irrelevant.

Seems to be the identical process I watched earlier on Living Felt tutorial

@sabine-ca9621 6 месяцев назад

I initially roll the wool like you and also use the needle to secure it. then I'll take an even simpler route. I throw the balls into very hot, soapy water, squeeze them out a little and then put them in the dryer for 10 to 15 minutes. they become perfectly round and firm. Then I wash it out (otherwise the wool will start to break down over time). then squeeze it out and set it aside to dry. You can do this with all sizes

@TamarasJoyDIY 6 месяцев назад

That is a GREAT idea!!!! I love the idea to use the dryer, you could make so many more this way. But thankyou for the tip to rinse out afterwards. Thanks for sharing :)

@ahsokatano5394 3 года назад

Thanks! Can you do a tutorial on how to make smaller ones? like .5 or 1 centimeter balls?

@TamarasJoyDIY 3 года назад

Great suggestion Ahsoka! But the tutorial wouldn't end up changing much. If you want smaller balls just weigh out less roving per ball and you can also roll them tighter to squish them into submission 😊😀 Hope that helps!

@ahsokatano5394 3 года назад

@@TamarasJoyDIY Thank you so much! It does help 😄😆😄😆😄

@Lauren-wg9pc 3 года назад

Please make a tutorial for the felted stuffies. They are so adorable!

@TamarasJoyDIY 3 года назад

Thank you! My boys love these stuffies. I will work on a tutorial to share all I have learned. Merry Christmas!

@mariambesalashvili4765 3 года назад

Hello , I want to know how many Gr of wool do I need for one felt ball?

@TamarasJoyDIY 3 года назад

Hi! I actually have no idea. As I went along I started to see the size I liked and then stuck to that amount of wool each time. But it was measured with my eyes so I can’t help you there. Sorry.

@sankalpapoudel9812 2 года назад

Fine

Where do I get the wool ? and is it expensive?

@TamarasJoyDIY 3 года назад

I get mine from a local seller, but you can also go to woolery.com/ and buy it online.

@Yan-ri2jg 3 года назад

For me its pretty cheap. I find it for 2.10-2.50 lev (bgn) in my country (google how much it would be in your currency

@bpimm6093 2 года назад

Can you create balls like this using something man made and not from animals? Xxx

@TamarasJoyDIY 2 года назад

I have no idea. I did make some balls from a very loose yarn before. But I think it was still wool.

@terricoe6780 2 года назад

Thank you so much, this is super helpful! I was wondering what soap you use?

@TamarasJoyDIY 2 года назад

Hi Terri, I used a basic dove soap. I know there are special olive oil soaps you can buy to do this but I just decided to use what I had. Happy creating!

@beautifulnoisze 3 года назад

I wanted to make some for m cat but im wondering where you use soap will it harm her?

@TamarasJoyDIY 3 года назад

I don’t really know. The soap is used as you create the ball but then you rinse the soap out. But I don’t know anything about cats to tell you more. Sorry Sherry. I wish I could be more helpful.
