Felt garlands are a sweet & elegant touch for any home, holiday or seasonal decorating. Our felt shapes are hand felted from 100% New Zealand wool. We assemble, carefully package, & ship out our final products from our studio in Perrysburg, Ohio. Felt balls measure approx. 1". Apples measure approx. 2.5" long. Pencils measure approx. 2.75" long. Felt shapes are moveable on the garland with gentle pressure so you can space & arrange them however you would like. Once in place, shapes will not move on their own. On the final arranged product, the balls will not be touching - they will be spaced approx. 2-3" apart. Garland comes as one single strand, or you can use two separate strands to create the double strand look. Handcrafted & ecofriendly, made from natural & renewable resources. CHOOSE FROM THESE LENGTHS: PLEASE NOTE: Length is of the STRING itself, NOT the total length of the 1" balls if pushed together! Each ball measures 1", & there will be approx. 2" of string BETWEEN each shape when they are all spaced out on the string. When pushed together, shapes will take up approx. 1/3 of the total string length 4 ft (1.2 m) = 15 balls + 2 felt pencil/apple shapes 6 ft (1.8 m) = 21 balls + 4 felt pencil/apple shapes 8 ft (2.4 m) = 28 balls + 5 felt pencil/apple shapes 10 ft (3 m) = 35 balls + 6 felt pencil/apple shapes TWINE THICKNESS: The twine we use is a thinner material. When working with wool felt garlands, it is not possible for any thicker twine to be used than what your garland will be made with. The twine we use is a 4 ply cotton twine. It is extremely sturdy & will not break or rip. PLEASE NOTE the garland string will be on the thinner size & will NOT be a super thick string.
