Any of you out there that are into crafts, are probably familiar with those 8 ½ x 11” rectangles of felt at the craft store that can be cut up to make all sorts of, well, crafty items, from Christmas tree ornaments to dolls. But felt has definitely gone uptown. Usually made of wool, felt is made by matting, condensing and pressing the fibers together, the result of which is a dense, but pliable fabric that adapts itself to a variety of shapes. Designers are rediscovering felt’s versatility and, this year, we’re finding felt everywhere, from the runway, to your dining room.
On Madison has assembled a chic montage of items in felt and the best part is, no glue or scissors are required!
