Kunin Felt Blog Hop
This month's blog hop is sponsored by Kunin Felts and Fabrics, made in the U.S.A. of Eco-fi®. Eco-fi is a high-quality fiber made from
100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. Kunin Felt
recycles billions of water bottles every year that would otherwise be
sent to landfills and makes them into a product which amazingly becomes felt. 12
bottles equals 1 lb of felt that can be used for children's crafts, home décor, even apparel. The
felt is also weather resistant and fade proof, making it great for outdoor décor. It can even be used to line garden beds or patio, to keep it weed free. Read more about Eco-fi here.
Each designer received a selection of 9" x 12" craft cuts of Classic felt and/or 12" x 18" craft cuts of Premium felt. Check out the following designer blogs for inspiration, then comment here about your favorite projects. Each comment will be entered into a random drawing to receive an assortment of both Classic felt and Premium felt valued at $75 to use to make your own projects!
