Craft Felt Sheets for DIY Projects, Kids & Applique

Shop Felt Sheets by Type

Four main craft felt sheet formats cover almost every hobby and classroom project:

• Standard craft felt sheets — A4, single-colour acrylic and wool blend sheets, ideal for general craft and applique
• Value and themed packs — assorted acrylic value packs, plus pastel, glitter and metallic packs for classroom art rooms and kids' craft cupboards
• Self-adhesive felt — backed with peel-off adhesive for no-sew applique and quick craft activities
• Stiffened and thick felt — A3 stiffened sheets and 3mm-thick felt for structured projects like bag panels, signs and 3D shapes

Popular Uses for Craft Felt Sheets

Felt sheets are one of the most versatile items in the craft cupboard. Common projects include:

• Applique on garments — cut felt shapes and stitch or iron them onto fabric
• Ornament-making — Christmas baubles, seasonal decorations, gift tags
• Kids' craft and classroom art — bright colour range, safe and easy to work with
• Felt board learning resources — matching games, storyboards, teaching aids
• Small stuffed toys — pocket-sized softies and finger puppets
• Keyring charms and hair accessories — small cut-outs mounted on hardware
• Seasonal decorations — Easter bonnets, Halloween props, Christmas tree ornaments

Choosing the Right Felt Sheet Format

Standard felt sheets suit most projects — general craft, applique, ornament-making, kids' activities. If you're not sure what you need, start here.

Self-adhesive felt is the fastest route to a finished project. Peel the backing off and stick — no glue, no sewing, no drying time. Perfect for quick classroom activities, party hosting and no-sew applique.

Value packs are the buy for classroom art rooms and kids' craft cupboards. You get a spread of colours in one purchase rather than choosing sheets individually.

Stiffened and 3mm-thick felt holds its shape without extra support — better for 3D shapes, bag panels, signage and structured decorations than standard soft felt.

Felt Sheets for Kids, Schools & Bulk Buyers

Schools, OOSH programs, kids' party hosts, and community craft groups order felt sheets in volume for good reason — the per-sheet cost drops significantly at higher volumes, and value packs remove the sourcing overhead.

Bulk packs are available at retail across the sheet range, and trade-tier pricing opens up through a Ribtex wholesale account for teachers, educators and larger buyers.

Craft Felt Sheets Frequently Asked Questions

What size are your craft felt sheets?

Standard felt sheets are A4 (21cm × 29.7cm). Stiffened and thick sheets come in A3, and value packs include a variety of colours in one pack.

What's the difference between craft felt sheets and felt by the metre?

Sheets are pre-cut for small projects and single-craft use. Felt by the metre comes on a bolt for larger projects like sewing, upholstery and bulk classroom orders.

Do you stock self-adhesive felt?

Yes — self-adhesive felt is available for no-sew applique, quick classroom activities and party hosting.

Are craft felt sheets suitable for machine sewing?

Yes — most craft felt sheets sew fine on a standard machine. Wool blend and pure wool felt handles seams better than cheap pure acrylic under stress.

Do you sell felt sheets in bulk for schools?

Yes. Bulk packs are available at retail, and Ribtex wholesale trade pricing is available for schools and educators.
