How to Make a Wool Felt Wet Felted Phone Case270

Materials:
Wool roving in your desired colors
A foam block or other firm surface to work on
A pair of sharp scissors
A bowl of warm water
A bar of natural soap
A rolling pin or other cylindrical object for rolling the felt

Instructions:

1. Prepare the wool roving. Pull apart the wool roving into small pieces. You can use a variety of colors to create a custom design.

2. Lay out the wool roving. Place the wool roving pieces onto the foam block in the shape of your phone case. Make sure the roving is evenly distributed and that there are no gaps.

3. Wet the wool roving. Dip the wool roving into the bowl of warm water. Use your hands to gently squeeze the water through the roving. Do not over-saturate the roving, as this will make it difficult to felt.

4. Apply soap to the wool roving. Rub the bar of soap onto the wet wool roving. The soap will help to bind the wool fibers together.

5. Begin felting. Use your hands to gently rub and roll the wool roving. Continue rubbing and rolling until the wool fibers begin to mat together and form a felt-like fabric.

6. Roll the felt. Once the wool fibers have begun to mat together, roll the felt with a rolling pin or other cylindrical object. This will help to smooth out the felt and make it more compact.

7. Rinse the felt. Rinse the felt in cold water to remove the soap. Gently squeeze the excess water from the felt.

8. Dry the felt. Lay the felt flat on a towel to air dry. Do not put the felt in the dryer, as this could cause it to shrink.

9. Trim the felt. Once the felt is dry, trim it to the size and shape of your phone. You can use a pair of sharp scissors to trim the felt.

10. Enjoy your new wool felt phone case! Your new phone case is now complete. Enjoy using it to protect your phone in style.

Tips:
Use a variety of wool roving colors to create a custom design.
Don't over-saturate the wool roving with water, as this will make it difficult to felt.
Be patient and take your time felting the wool. It may take some time to get the desired results.
If the felt is too thick, you can thin it out by rolling it with a rolling pin or other cylindrical object.
If the felt is too thin, you can add more wool roving and continue felting.
