SEAWEEDS nunofelt scarf * Нунофелт шал МОРСКИ ВОДОРАСЛИ




Loving embrace! Beautiful original accessory for you!
The scarf is suitable for all seasons and for cool summer days and nights too.

It is inspired by the seaweeds, sun, air and water.
***
Любяща прегръдка! Красив и оригинален аксесоар!
Този шал е подходящ за всеки сезон, както и за прохладните летни дни и вечери.
Той е вдъхновен от водораслите, слънцето, въздуха и водата.


The base is a fine cotton scarf with shine. Over it I felted fancy woolen yarn, fine merino wool 18 and 20 microns. This wool I dyed with plants extracts from onion skins.

On this pictures below you can see my process at some working stages:
***
Основата е много фин памучен шал с бласък. Върху него съм заплъстила ефектна вълнена прежда, фина мериносова вълна с дебелина 18 и 20 микрона. Тази вълна съм обагрила с екстракти от лучени люспи.
На снимките тук може да видите някои работни етапи от създаването на шала:



After the long hours of laying woolen yarn and wool in two colors began the proper felting process.
All is made by hand! I do not use any machinery to felt!
***
След дълги часове редене на преждата и двата цвята вълна, започна и същинският процес на плъстене.
Всичко е правено на ръка! Аз не използвам машинки и подобни уреди, за да правя филц!


The final result is that! 
Size: approximately 64 inches (1.63 meters) long, 67 inches (1.80 m) with fringes, at about 22 inches (56 cm) wide. 

***
И накрая се получи ето това! 
Размерът е 1,80 на 0,56 м. 


The scarf is soft and has a beautiful natural look.
For this contribute uneven edges resulting from the merger process between the finished fabric and wool, called nuno-felting.

You can wear it without scarf pin, but I offer one golden colored with it.
I offer it in my Etsy shop LanAArt:

***
Шалът е нежен, мек и има хубаво естествено изльчване.
За това допринасят и неравните краища, които са резултат от процеса на проникване и сливане между готовата тъкан и вълната, наречен нуно-филц.

Може да носите шала без игла или брошка, но аз го предлагам с голяма златиста игла за шал.

Предлагам го в магазина ми LanAArt в Etsy, но ако живеете в България, може да го закупите от мен с голяма отстъпка.
















You can combine this scarf with brooch listed here: http://etsy.me/11GE8e4

Добре се комбинира с брошката на снимката.


Cleaning:
If needed, wash gentle ONLY by hand in cold or lukewarm water up to 30 degrees by Celsius with mild detergent suitable for wool and silk. Or you can use a hair shampoo for this purpose.
Do not change the water temperature when you rinse out the soap.
After washing gently press out in hands without twisting or bending.
Carefully absorb excess water with a cotton towel and after you did this, the wool will be almost dry. Let dry completely free on air.
Please, do not dry in a dryer!
It has more interesting structure without ironing and ironing is not recomended!

Почистване:
Пере се внимателно на ръка в хладка вода с подходящ за вълна и коприна препарат или мек сапун, или шампоан. Изплаква се добре от сапуна.
Не се извива, а се изтисква внимателно между двете ръце.
Излишната влага се отнема със суха, чиста хавлиена кърпа.
Оставя се да изсъхне, найдобре в хоризонтална позиция.

Може да го гладите на температура за вълна, но аз го намирам по-красив с интересната структура без гладене.

Не препоръчвам химическо чистене! То е агресивен процес, който може дори да повреди
шала.

AUTUMN SUNS - felt art carpet in Autumn Palette

http://www.etsy.com/listing/171645698/autumn-suns-felt-art-carpet-rug-tapestry


A walk in the forest under the caressing rays of the warm autumn sun among the colors and shapes as only autumn can offer!
And a thousand reflections of light in the wet leaves!
Autumn Galore!

http://www.etsy.com/listing/171645698/autumn-suns-felt-art-carpet-rug-tapestry


On the floor or on the wall this woolen rug will warm the atmosphere of your home with its warm colors and the light that emanates from it!




I created this felt art carpet in November 2013 preparing for an exhibition of applied arts named BEFORE CHRISTMAS curated by Darzalas gallery in the Art hall of Radio Varna from November 19 till December 3, 2013.



Size is approximately 1.25 x 1.25 meters = 49.2 x 49.2 inches, thickness at about 1 cm = 0,4 inches.
It is completely handmade!


You can look at the process of creation that began with an inspiration from nature - tree mushrooms that have a unique structure. Beautiful and differentin themselves, they are a real work of art on the largest Creator!


I painted this picture long ago with acrylic paints.
And I always wanted to recreate it in textiles.
The idea long matured and finally just asked to be born!



And the process of felting began starting with the wool base that is so large in the beginning.



The carpet is created only from ecological clean Bulgarian wool in wet felt technique.



I used different types of wool, most of them I dyed personally.
Some of the colors I've dyed with extract of natural leaves.
Others are in the wool's natural shades of white, grey and brown.
Many time carefully arranging the design, putting wool fiber after fiber, wetting, adding more, etc.


Many hours of laying wool "painting" by it!


After all started the hard part of the process - actual felting by rolling of heavy package and the final rubbing for alignment by processing of edges.

At the end followed washing of the heavy wet carpet from the soap, draining and drying it.

Exhibiting:
This art carpet can be used as wall hanging (wall panel) too.
You can hang it in the direction that you like the most.
Hang it by putting a long wooden stick (e.g. bamboo) or metal rod and then sew it with fishing line or strong thread to the back of the carpet, and then hang it on the wall too.

Cleaning methods: 
You can just clean the dust. There is no need of often washing or cleaning.
In case of need you can wash it. HAND WASHING IS RECOMMENDED!
For washing you can use the bathtub, large wash basin or baby tub for bathing.
Please, have in mind that hand wash is permissible by gentle washing agents suitable for wool. 

After washing, please rinse well and add some vinegar (in proportion at about 1 table spoon vinegar in 1 liter water) at last rinsing. Do that, you can rinse again with clear water to remove the smell of vinegar.
After washing allow water to drain well.

After that, please, press out the water carefully by hand.
Please, do not twist! Absorb excess water with a cotton towel. Let dry free on air.
Please, do not hang - dry on a flat surface avoiding direct sunlight!
Please, do not dry in a dryer!
