Giveaway: Felt Circles

Many moons ago I used to cut out little felt circles from all my felt scraps... I found a whole bag of them recently while having a clearout:


I don't have any use for them, but it would be a shame for all that lovely colour to go to waste! So I thought one of you lovely folks might like them for your crafty projects :)


One lucky crafter will win all the circles pictured. The largest ones are a mere 2cm (3/4 inch) across, and there are some really tiny ones in there too. They're cut from a mix of acrylic felts and wool/synthetic blend felt. Because of the small size of these circles, please note that they're not suitable for use in crafting with very young children.

Here's a pic with a spool of thread for scale:


They're not completely perfect circles as they were all cut by hand, but you could have lots of spotty dotty fun with these!

As always, I'm happy to ship internationally, so anyone can enter. Just leave a comment on this blog post for a chance to win! (If you're reading this on my Facebook page please click through to my blog to leave your comment on the original post).

Leave your comment before 10pm on Saturday 4th June and
I'll pick a winner at random on Sunday 5th June.

Please make sure you leave a name or pseudonym (no anonymous comments please!) and leave a link or email address so I can contact you.

  162. I have just become a mother and whilst I'm at home have been hankering for some crafty fun. I have started making little mobiles with felt and other materials. Oddly I was working on one with felt butterflies and paper balls when I found your site and your very similar mobile-it was a hilarious surprise-we even used the same colours. Unfortunately I had to use precut commercially made felt butterflies- nowhere near as gorgeous as handmade because most of the time I am holding baby and cutting out is the one task I really can't do with one hand- I would love a stockpile like this which would let me play freely without the hinderance of being unable to do the basic preparations!
