- In this video you will learn how to wet felt on glass jars from your favorite yogurt, etc. like Yoplait Oui, La Fermiere and Starbucks frappuccino©.
Feel free to ask questions. I will be happy to respond.

I remove labels by filling the glass with water and heating it in the micro then peeling it off. I then use nail polish remover.
I try not to chemicals if I can avoid it. Last thing I heard is if you put hot water in the jar the label will peel off more easily. Can’t remember if I tried it or not.
Lovely clear tutorial - thank you for sharing
Thanks Lyn. Appreciate the comment.
What a terrific idea. Thank you for sharing.
I’m so glad you liked it!
Thanks for sharing your video. It was very helpful
I think it turned out so pretty. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
Clear instructions. Thanks
deb hulks you’re welcome!
Great idea for re-purposing ! Thank you !
Thanks Annette!!
Thank you! I will be trying this very soon. Your final result looks lovely 👌
Thank you. I’m so glad you liked it. Enjoy!
We love a pioneer of the arts!
Awww. thanks so much!!
Es fantástico gracias...💜😘🍀🤗🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
This is fantastic! I KNEW I was saving the glass jars and lids from my candles for a reason! Thinking I can embroider the names of the medicinal herbs I will store into the felt. Great tutorial! Thank you!
Love that! You’re welcome!
I have been wondering what to do with all the glass jars and bottles I have, This is perfect, isn't it!
Love this. I’m thinking you could wrap some beautiful wool yarn around it in the initial stages to hold in place for the stocking I love the look of wool too very surprising effects. Your very clever love this❤
Thank you! I just bought one of your creations from your Etsy shop.
That's so cool. Thank you!!
Great idea
Thank you!
Just did this on a Coke bottle. Came out great.
Brilliant process and work. I’m wondering if Ivwoukd be able to needle felting a bit of a design when dry woukd work. Of course wouldn’t be able to punch too deep. Have you tried this?
You can make the felt on a flat surface first and then wrap the bottle after you layer and layer on flat surface.
Place hose on another item then place fiber and jar into it. Like a container. As long as hose can stretch
Yes, someone else suggested that. I think a can that's been open on both ends would work great. Haven't tried it yet.
to remove stickinesss from label, use mineral oil. Also, boiling the bottles makes the glue easier to remove.
To help the neps to felt better, do not put them on so thick. Neps are already felted so the idea of placing a lacey amount of wool on top is a good suggestion too. Fun and interesting!!
Thanks so much!
Cute idea. Gave me an idea for a wine bottle cozy. Although I think my technique will be a little different from yours. The nylon is a great idea for keeping the fibers in place. I actually do a little spinning so I am familiar with roving. You might like felting over pretty soaps. You have probably seen these at fairs. Thanks for sharing your idea.
Thank you! I've also thought about the idea of using a wine bottle. I have a few I've saved over the years because I liked the shape, and wasn't sure what to do with them, so might give that a shot. And funny you should say that about soaps, because I've been obsessively looking for soaps shaped like eggs to felt to look like Easter eggs. You can never have a completely original idea as someone on Etsy is already doing it (and beautifully, with her own soaps), but I'd like to put my own spin on them. Anyway, thanks for the comment. I'd love to see what you come up with for your wine cozy.
Just an idea to get the glass vessel and loose wool inside the nylon in one go without too much disruption....when I’ve used techniques similar to this, I stretched the nylon over a large plastic jug (or whatever), ruching it up until its stretched almost flat over the open jug. The wool/glass combo can then be dropped into the jug, with just a little encouragement to make sure the nylon isn’t pulled too tight around it. Release the stocking completely and tie! I’m on my own in most craft projects and I haven’t got like six hands or anything so I found this the best method.
Victoria Lovatt thanks. Will try that next time. No extra hands around here either.
Nice beginning to your felting journey. the only problem is that you have not actually created felt since the wool isn't able to shrink--in order to truly have a felted result you need to wrap your initial bottle with added layers (bubble wrap works) which you'll remove as the felt shrinks. try it and you'll see the final result is much finer quality felt.
I used bubble wrap though.
@@tepperleen You used bubble wrap to finish the piece; I'm referring to putting a layer of bubble wrap around your vessel under the wool ( you an use a bit of scotch tape to cose it around the glass) bubble side out; then proceed with the initial rubbing inside your stocking. after a while when the prefelting has begun, you can remove that inner bit of bubble wrap and the wool will now feel baggy around the vessel. That's ok because now the felting will begin in earnest and the wool will shrink around the vessel. I hope this makes sense.
@@Malinki8 got it. Thank you.
Just came across this video today 12-2-20. I hope you're still wet felting. The bottle was very pretty & a great recycled product. I have an idea to get the stocking over the wool covered bottle. Try stretching the stocking over an embroidery hoop. If you don't have one & you have access to Walmart they are cheap & they come in wood, plastic, & metal. To get the labels off the bottles DON'T immerse the bottle in water you need the label dry. Fill the bottle with very hot water to just above the label. Let it sit for a bit maybe a minute or so, take your fingernail and start peeling slowly off. The hot water inside the bottle heats up the glue and should make the label come off very easily. If there is some glue residue you can wash off with soap and water. Are you going to continue to wet felt & make videos? I subscribed just in case.
Thanks so much for the tip, especially in getting the labels off. I will absolutely try that. I’ve been using baking powder and oil. Someone suggested using a can open on both ends, putting the stocking over that first and then slipping the bottle through it as the stocking slides off and onto the jar. I haven’t tried it yet. I’m not wet felting much because as much as I love doing it and think the result is amazing they just don’t sell. Thanks again for the purchase and for subscribing.
What do you use these for?
Depends on the jar really. Vase, succulents planter, q-tip/cotton holder, just for show.
❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍🇳🇱
What are you going to use the bottle for?
I sell them mostly. So they’re boxed up to keep them clean. But a vase, or for show mostly. The smaller ones make a nice stash jar. Also great for succulents.
Wow I QQ w wad
you hold your work out of video range a lot of the time....
