I am the biggest fan of felt balls ever. They’re one of my favorite craft supplies. If I see a sale pop up, you better believe that I’ll be buying some! I’ve made a zillion garlands, but as I was cleaning my craft area, I came across some other craft supplies and started playing. My Felt Ball Trees were born!
These were not only a lot of fun to make, but you can totally customize the look and color. I used:
- felt balls
- wooden spool
- dowels
- glue gun and glue
- styrofoam ball
- washi tape
Take the dowel and push it into the styrofoam ball.
Glue the felt balls onto the styrofoam. Do this by using a small amount of glue on the felt ball and then sticking it to the styrofoam. Super easy. I started at the dowel and worked my way up until the whole styrofoam ball was covered.
I took a few pieces of washi tape and wrapped them around the wooden spool. Stick the dowel in and you’re finished!
These two particular trees make me think of winter and spring. I’m imagining a whole forest of felt ball trees with different themes now!
These are so cute and so much fun!!! And your pictures look amazing!

They are beautiful! I had never seen felt balls before and now I can’t wait to find some and start gluing!!

where do you purchase your felt balls? Your trees are beautiful.
How cute – I particularly love the spool bases. I am a big fan of felt and all the rich colours although I haven’t made anything out of felt balls.
This would be an adorable project for a nursery! Super cute idea! Stop by anytime!

If I can find out where you buy these cute felt balls will be making some of those adorable trees. Like to find different ideas for holiday decorating when I can, get tired of same old, same old. These would be great little gifts also. Can see little forest of them.
So glad I clicked on your post. Happy Sunday
