Meet Kim of Viltalakim:

When I was little I was always being crafty with origami, filigraan, knitting etc. Later I became creative with flowers and gardening. After giving birth to two lovely daughters I became a florist teacher and I have a full time job doing that.

My passion now is making felt by the wet-felt technique. I sometimes use the felting needles. Thanks to my friend who moved to Sweden and introduced felting to me. A fine colleague helped me with different felting techniques. Felting is so much fun to do! It gives me new energy in this world where everything has to be done fast. Felting is physical hard work and can take a while before it's finished. Never the less Is felting something magic every time. Colors somehow mix together and become new colors.

And did you know, Vilt is Dutch for Felt?
