FELT BROOCHES

I tried something new yesterday, I made felt brooches.
It was fiddly but also a lot of fun. I had some felt scraps
so I thought I'd give it a go.
It was easier to work with the thin poly felt and it looks
a lot better as well.
The red ones are made out of the thinner felt.
Felt jewelry was very popular in the 1940's, because it
was cheap and people made a lot of their own jewelry
and accessories themselves.
