About Natasha Smart Textiles

Natasha Smart Textiles

Hi, I'm Natasha, I'm a wet felting artist, teacher and author inspired by coastal living and my love of wool!

I'm a full-time textile artist who has been addicted to wet felting since 2005! Although I enjoy all types of decorative wet felting, I'm particularly interested in practical three-dimensional structural forms which can be created with wool fibre. This has led me to specialise in the felting on a ball resist technique to create felted bags, baskets and bowls, which I regularly teach on workshops in my studio in the seaside town of Exmouth, Devon on the UK south coast (often accompanied by my 3 cats!). I find coastal living very inspiring and often find myself drawn to creating abstract patterns and textures found in nature and natural landscapes.

I love experimenting with wet felting techniques and materials to develop new projects, as well as sharing my knowledge to help others develop their feltmaking skills to create beautiful finished items. This has led me to create several online courses and tutorials on wet felting, including tutorials on YouTube. I've also written over 25 magazine project articles covering felting and textile craft, including for the International Feltmakers Association (IFA) magazine Felt Matters. My first book, Wet Felting, which covers all aspects of wet felting, from flat felting to working with both two and three-dimensional resists, was published in April 2022. My second book, Three-dimensional Wet Felting, was published in May 2024 and focuses in depth on felting on a ball. It covers all the techniques you need for successful results, along with a range of inspiring projects to create yourself.

Sharing the magic of wet felting has become a real passion for me and I regularly share videos and photos of workshops and wet felted pieces on my social media accounts @natashasmarttextiles, where you can find more inspiration for your own creations. I also sell various wet felting supplies through my Folksy shop to help you get started on your wet felting projects.
