Modern Decorating Inspiration: Felt Embellishments
November 7, 2009
Felt — that fuzzy material you used in fourth grade to make cut out animals & party masks — has made a beautiful come back! By it’s very DIY nature, felt is a neat texture and material to incorporate. From it’s no-hem-needed cutting capabilities to the ease of tracking it down (every craft, art or kids store in your neighborhood), you could not ask for a more versatile DIY textile.
Full House featured these two lampshade and pillow felt inspirations, I adore the delicate flowered lampshade that could be remade with a few flea market broaches. The ruffled pillows below add a whimsical touch to the room and would be so easy to create with gathered strips of felt and a quick hand stitch (from Kelly + Olive).
How great are these BHG felt projects? Refashion a standard throw pillow by adding leaf, flower or butterfly felt embellishments. The grey felt placemat is by Kikkerland.
This floral pouf from Modern Dose makes a fabulous statement and would be so great for casual extra seating in the living room. Lace felt throw pillows from BHG — you can purchase similar lace embellishment strips in scrapbooking and craft stores.

Following my own investigation, thousands of persons on our planet get the mortgage loans from various banks. Thus, there’s good chances to receive a short term loan in every country.
The dresser pulls that I did were actually not felt at all, they were silk flowers that I got from a craft store. I think that felt flowers would be awesome as drawer pulls as well. I’m so glad you like it. Thanks for sharing.
Valencia, your dresser turned out beautifully! Thanks for sharing your work!
Although, the lampshade hat may take the cake!
Gerbera drawer pulls? Wow…I like the look of that!
