"Achieve a realistic, professional finish on your sculptural details with our Brown Floristry Tape. This versatile, self-sealing tape is a must-have for any needle felter looking to create lifelike legs, feet, and branches. Specifically designed to provide a textured surface, it transforms smooth wire into a 'grippy' foundation that is perfect for further felting or painting."

The Secret to Realistic Legs and Branches

"When working with aluminium armature wire, it can often be difficult to get wool to stay in place on very thin sections. Our brown floristry tape provides the ideal solution. By wrapping your wire first, you create a slightly tacky, paper-like surface that holds wool fibres securely. Left in its natural state, the rich brown colour is perfect for bird legs, tree limbs, or rustic antlers."

How to Use Your Floristry Tape

"This tape is unique because it is pressure-activated. To use:

1. Attach: Press the end of the tape against your wire.

2. Stretch and Wind: Pull the tape gently as you wind it around the wire. Stretching the tape 'activates' the wax coating.

3. Seal: The heat from your hands as you rub the wrapped wire will make the tape stick firmly to itself, creating a seamless, water-resistant finish."

Customisable and Versatile

"While the natural brown finish looks fantastic on its own, this tape is also highly customisable. Once applied to your armature, the surface can be painted with acrylic paints to match any colour palette. This is particularly useful for creating specific bird species or fantasy creatures where a unique leg colour is required. It’s a simple way to optimise the realism of your Woollie and Feltie characters."
