Fake Fur Fabrics
Posted by Aine on 3rd Nov 2016
We have a great range of colours in our fake fur fabrics on our fabric floor for just €12.00 per metre.
Fake fur can be used in so many ways. It can make a really dramatic costume for Halloween or a costume party, especially the brighter shades of fur. You can also use it to upcycle a winter coat by trimming the collar or cuffs.
Faux fur has been very popular amongst designers and on catwalks for autumn/winter this year.
This purple pillbox hat was made using a small amount of our fake fur and one of our synthetic straw pillbox hats as a base for the hat shape. It is so simple to make and costs a fraction of the price of buying a fur hat. You can even use a hot glue gun to attach the fur to the hat base if you are not confident with sewing.
The gems and button embellishments used were also from our fabric floor.
With the weather getting chillier there is no better time to experiment with using fake fur for your dressmaking projects. Bags, Legwarmers, gloves and scarves can all be embellished with fake fur!
