Je vous indique quelques uns de mes fournisseurs en fin de page "Outils et Fournitures"

Felt
Cord (3-4 mm)

A few details
- To cut out the felt, tape the templates on top and use small scissors to cut them together.
- As for the fleece, I usually use two layers: one the size of cardboard and a smaller one in the center, which gives a little more volume.
- If your cardboard is gray or printed, glue a thick white or straw-colored paper over it to prevent it showing through the fabric.
Then cut a piece of fabric slightly larger than the template and glue it to the cardboard. Clip if necessary and glue the excess to the back of the cardboard.
- To glue the cord, fold it in half, place the middle of the cord in the bottom of the ornament and glue to the edge, working your way up each side. Make sure the two sides meet in the middle of the top of the ornament. Insert the two pieces of cord into a bead, slide it onto the cardboard and apply a little glue to secure it. Tie a knot 7 cm above the bead.
