Hello . . . I'm Shalana, a fiber artist known as the funky felter. My felted creations are made from the ancient technique of wet felting, needle felting, or a combination of both. Wet felting involves applying extremely hot water, soap, and agitation to layers of carded wool. The wool will eventually "felt" where the fibers interlock and shrink forming a durable piece of non woven material. Needle felting involves using long barbed needles and repeatedly poking at the wool to interweave the fibers and form surface design or sculptural items. I use both skilled processes to create my funky one-of-a-kind items.
Visit www.thefunkyfelter.com for more information about who I am and my handmade arts and crafts. You may also visit my Etsy shop at http://thefunkyfelter.etsy.com to check my stellar customer feedback rating and to find more of my one-of-a-kind creations. My latest news and tips can be found on my blog, http://thefunkyfelter.blogspot.com.
I hope that you enjoy looking at my stuff and, of course, purchasing a few items for yourself or someone else!
