Felt vessels for ikebana home decor

Lately I started a new edition of colorful felt vessels.

I began because I was looking for new ideas to teach my favorite textile art technique - wet felting - in beginner classes. Finally I found myself hooked by creating felted bowls in all colors and shapes.

Multicolored felt vessels for a joyful home decoration.

It’s high fun to compose joyful home decor with felt vessels!

Not only do I love making them - I also love decorate my home with these joyful mini sculptures.

I made a bunch in blue (currently my favorite color!) and played around with all kind of shapes and sizez.

How to create ikebana in felt vessels

What I love most - is using these joyful containers for ikebana.

Ikebana is the Japanese art of floral arrangements.

What you need

• flower frogs

• recycled yogurt glasses /a small drinking glasses

• water

• felted vessels

• optional: nice stones

Materials you need to make a ikebana felt vessel.

For the flower arrangements shown in the photos I use recycled yogurt or small drinking glasses in which I put flower frogs pecked with flowers and fresh water.

The arrangements are inspired by the vessel shapes. In the same time, while composing, I had a lot of ideas for new vessels .

I love how inspiration works: always in a loop!
