CHA Summer 2012: HandBEHG Felts Booth Love

At any trade show, hundreds of booths compete for attention, but only a few really have what it takes to draw you in. At CHA Summer 2012, the booth that most caught my eye was definitely HandBEHG Felts! Even in the harsh show floor lighting, the rich, vibrant colors stopped me in my tracks, and the gorgeous display projects were so inspiring that I wanted to drop everything and start crafting right then and there.

Ready to take the tour?

This mixed media wall hanging was my favorite display in the booth. I love how the designer combined fabric with felt sheets and balls, stitching, and real wood embellishments to bring shape and life to the piece!

Layering felt and stitches provides a great platform for getting creative with texture and color—a fact that was on display in nearly every project I saw. I had to keep reminding myself not to reach out and touch everything in the booth!

HandBEHG Felts felt balls and shapes are so simple, yet so versatile. I loved how each display showed a new and interesting way to use the products, and left me feeling inspired to create something of my own. I can definitely see both a Christmas tree and a polka dot throw pillow in my crafting future, how about you?

Feeling inspired? You can find more information about each product on the HandBEHG Felts website, and you can purchase supplies directly through their Etsy store.
