Sufficient material is provided to complete 18 different projects. Glue is not included in the package but is necessary for construction. The created objects may depict animals, flowers, abstract designs, etc. They may be used as seasonal ornaments, mobiles, window decorations, gift ties and any number of other uses limited only by your imagination. "Felt Forms" is packaged in a clear polybag with cardboard header.
