paper and felt

Manufactum Parchment Necklace

A durable animal-hide parchment necklace from German store Manufactum.

City Maps Lampshade

Lampshade made from strips of old maps, available from umbu on etsy.

Sewing Pattern Paper Flower Lights

Everyday Beauty shows you how to use recycled sewing patterns to make a string of paper flower lights. Very pretty. (She used a string of silicone dipped electric lights, which is probably safer than using plain ones but I still wouldn't leave these on when you're not there.)

Millefiori Nuno Felt Scarf

This scarf is absolutely gorgeous, isn't it? I had a hard time choosin just one thing to feature from this etsy shop, Ava Original. It sells the work of a German felt and textile artist who makes scarves, belts, dresses and more that look like they'd work as fairy costumes for A Midsummer Night's Eve. Felt isn't just for winter.

Felt Crowns

Felt crowns from Pretty Little Things. (Aren't these little girls beautiful?)

Vintage Paper Marquee Letter

Over at Design Sponge they show you how to make your own vintage-looking marquee letter out of a string of lights and paper.

Felt Floral Wristlet

Green is springier but they have this felt floral wristlet in ink, too.
