You Will Need (3 things)

  • Colorful Wool Roving
  • Safety Pins Or Brooch Backings
  • Felting Needle

Steps (4 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    read my felting guide first
    (once they approve the publishing)


    so step one:
    get cho shizz togetha!

  2. 2

    okay well you should kinda know what your doing if you've read my felting how-to


    now just figure out what shape/object you want your brooch to be =]


    usually i just look through mags, comic books, or just make things that i saw at a store
    or just start making a random colorful abstract shape
    it doesnt have to be perfect or make any sense

  3. 3

    once youve found your inspiration
    make it!


    the smaller and stiffer the better
    lol


    and you can always sew beads into it, add glitter, threads, whatever
    be imaginative!

  4. 4

    finally just add the brooch backing by sewing it on the back of your little creation


    or just use a safety pin to stick it to things
    :D
