Product description
Sustainable and plastic free, the UTSHA mini pompom garland looks as cute as boho living room, bedroom or nursery decor, as on your Christmas tree.
Handmade in a small workshop in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal. The women makers all live locally and work flexible hours around family commitments. It can take 45 minutes to fully felt a tray of felt balls. The artisans fold wool fleece into small pods, then each works to roll a wooden board over a tray containing 600 pods plus a smidgen of water and soap. A rock is added for weight partway through the process, helping the balls become denser through friction whilst minimising soap and water consumption. Fascinating to watch and fun to try too! The balls are dried en mass in the sun and then the artisans sit on the padded workshop floor, using their toes to keep the balls in place while hand-stitching and threading our decorations and felt dining range. AURA QUE started working with the group in 2019. AURA QUE products are individually handcrafted and the unique story behind each AURA QUE product enhances its charm!

Made from
Carefully hand-felted from 100% raw sheep wool with soap and water. The shades of grey, brown and cream are completely natural, while other colours are produced using azo-free dyes. Wool is a natural insulator, with high breathability, and it resists odours due to its natural antibacterial properties. Wool is one of the most sustainable fabrics in existence; renewable and biodegradable, it requires relatively little water for its production. Our wool is mulesing free. The balls are not affixed and can be gently pulled along the waxed thread to reach your desired spacing; they grip the thread and remain in place unless moved. For safety reasons, keep out of reach of young children.
Care instructions: Spot clean with damp cloth. Do not submerge in water.
