Craft Felt FAQs

What type of felt is suitable for my project?

While all felt might look the same upon first glance, there are actually different types of felt out there that can be used for crafting projects. Each of these types have specific applications, so it is worth looking into them to ensure you have the best option for the project you have in mind. Acrylic felts are by far the most common, as they are the most affordable to produce. They come in a range of different colours, including some of the boldest colours you have ever seen!.

How do I cut felt sheets?

When you cut felt, you need to pay extra attention to precision. Use an appropriate pair of scissors. Ideally, you want one that has short blades and a pointed tip, which tends to provide a much cleaner cut than other types of scissors. If you have such a pair of scissors, but they are blunt, make sure that you sharpen the scissors before you attempt cutting material.

What glue should I use with felt?

Using a hot glue gun and hot glue is a great option to use with felt as it offers a strong and permanent hold. If you are glueing felt to paper, you can use a basic PVA glue or craft glue. Fabric glue is also a great option when glueing felt to other fabrics.

How do I look after felt?

Felt is unlike any other fabric on the market, as this particular material is not woven. So, to take good care of your material, you need to store and take care of it in the right manner.

Firstly, always make sure your store felt flat. While you can work out folds in felt, it does take more effort than other fabrics. If you store this fabric flat, then it is less likely to get accidentally folded or wrinkled. If you do encounter wrinkles or unwanted folds, you can iron your felt. However, only do this for wool felt, as acrylic felt could melt and ruin in an instant under clothes iron. For acrylic materials, you can always consider a fabric steamer instead.
