Design Thinking Rooted in Handwork

Our studio brings together wool, colour and handwork to create felt décor that feels considered, useful and right for seasonal selling.

Wool-Led Design Language

Each piece is shaped by the character of its felt, balancing softness, colour, scale, stitching and intended display within the final form.

Handwork Meets Product Precision

Handmade variation gives each piece personality, while agreed sizes, colours and construction details provide clarity for commercial orders.

Built for Long-Term Partnerships

We support retailers, gift shops, gifting teams, stylists and trade partners looking for considered décor and seasonal collaboration.

From Concept Development to Seasonal Delivery

Our studio workflow brings design thinking, felt decisions, sampling and order planning into one process, so the buyer knows what is being developed, what is approved and when it will arrive.

STEP 01

Discovery & Brief


We begin by understanding the product type, selling season, reference images or existing designs, approximate quantities, target market, preferred colours and the exact date your stock needs to be in your store.

STEP 02

Design Development


We review existing designs, references or new character ideas around size, expression, colour, construction and display. For custom requirements, suitable options are shaped with you before any physical sample is made.

STEP 03

Felt Selection


We consider wool felt, polyester felt and recycled felt according to the design, required softness, colour, price point and intended use. Trims such as embroidery, beads, bells or wire are agreed at this stage too.

STEP 04

Sampling & Prototyping


Where required, a sample is made so the buyer can review size, colour, expression, stitching, softness and overall character before confirming a larger order. Any changes are agreed at this stage, before bulk production starts.

STEP 05

Order & Production Coordination


Once the product specification, quantity and commercial terms are approved, the order moves into the agreed production plan. Timelines, quantities and packing are confirmed in writing so seasonal stock arrives in time to sell.

STEP 06

Quality Review


Finished pieces are reviewed against the agreed felt, colours, size, stitching and overall condition. Quality checks also allow for the small, natural variation that makes every handmade felt piece its own.

STEP 07

Packing & Delivery Support


The completed order is prepared according to product type, quantity and destination, using packing that protects each piece's shape and colour. Shipping arrangements and delivery responsibilities are agreed and confirmed before dispatch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of projects does the FELTORA studio take on?

The studio supports seasonal range planning, wool felt collection development, trade and bulk requirements, retail and gifting enquiries, custom characters and private label projects. Buyers can start from the collection, a reference image or a new idea, each reviewed around design, felt, quantity and season.

Do you offer custom felt development?

Custom requirements can be reviewed where an existing collection piece does not meet the brief. Share the character, size, colours, felt preference, quantity and reference so available development options can be confirmed before sampling.

Can you support larger orders?

Larger seasonal requirements can be reviewed across ornaments, garlands, stockings, wreaths, tabletop pieces and wool home goods. The right production plan depends on the design, quantity, felt, customization and the date stock must arrive.

What felts and trims can be selected?

The FELTORA range is made from wool felt, with polyester and recycled PET felt for selected custom projects. Trims like embroidery, beads, bells, ribbon and wire are chosen per design and confirmed in writing.

How does your studio process work?

The process begins with the buyer’s brief, followed by design development, felt and colour selection and, where required, sampling. Once product details, quantity and commercial terms are approved, production is planned around your selling season, reviewed and packed for dispatch.

Can international buyers work with the studio?

Yes. International buyers can submit trade enquiries with the designs or collections required, quantities and destination country. The shipping method, commercial terms and delivery responsibilities are all confirmed before any order is placed.

What are your lead times?

Lead times depend on the selected designs, quantities, availability, customization, felt, sampling and destination. FELTORA confirms a lead time in each quote, so plan seasonal orders early and share the date your stock needs to arrive in store.
