Step by step

Step 1:
Cut the felt to size

First cut several strips of the "Klausi" sheep's wool felt. These should be about 5 cm wide and 50 cm long.

Step 2:
Roll up the felt

Then roll your strips together widthways and finally secure them with a hot glue gun so that they can no longer unravel. To secure the felt rolls in the basket, you can also roll up the felt on split sticks.

Step 3:
Fasten the rollers

Put the prepared rolls into the basket with the flowers. Make sure that the rolls of wool are firmly clamped. This way you get some filling material in your basket and loosen up the plant arrangement.

To add the finishing touch to your All Saints' Day arrangement, you can create small, rolled wire snails using the "Rauris" wire cord and place them skilfully between the felts. This creative addition gives your work an extra dimension and provides an appealing and individual touch. The arrangement is the perfect addition to your customers' autumn or All Saints' Day decorations.
