Not only do these rugs by Happy as Larry Designs look sweet but I can imagine they’d feel great underfoot. Available from their store starting from AU$399. For a tutorial about how to create one yourself, check out this post by Shiny Little Things.

I would worry that the little ones would put the balls in their mouths. Chocking hazard
How do yo get the balls to stick together?
you can stick them together by sewing each of them together.
How Will you calculate how many are needed to make a round rug?
hello tine,
you can calculate the balls easily for the round rug. this is how you can achieve the result,
for example we will find out for 100 cm round rug, we are going to use 2.2 t0 2 cm felt balls so let’s take 2cm as the standard size.
if the rug is 100 cm round in diameter then we will divide it by two so it’s going to be 50 and we will multiply by same amount which is 50 so it’s around 2500 felt balls for 100 cm rug. similarly for 200 cm rug it will be 100×100 = 10000 pieces rug, if you need the weight then you can divide by 600 to get the weight in kilo grams for the rug.
if you will ever like to buy the felt balls in wholesale here were are selling in very reasonable price: http://www.feltandyarn.com
Hi, I’m having trouble how to work out if I want to make a 200cm circle rug. How many felt wool balls do you think I need? Thanks for sharing!
you will need approximately 10000 felt balls of 2cm diameter.
I want to make chair cushions for my dining room set. They would measure roughly 12″ x 15″ and if I’m figuring correctly that comes out to 1150, 1 centimeter felt balls per chair! Not sure I can afford that.
Is it 12 inches x 15 inches ???? Is it in rectangular ?
12 inches is around : 30 cm (15 felt balls)
15 inches is around : 38 cm ( 19 felt balls)
Total : 15×19 = 285 felt balls if you make of 2cm felt balls
If you make of 1cm felt balls then it will be roughly around (30×38) = 1140 felt balls
1cm felt balls are lot cheaper we are selling in 60 USD per 1000 pieces and there is free shipping over 150 USD order

Here is where to buy the felt balls but I want to know about how many to buy to make roughly a 5×8 ft rug?

It’s easy to calculate how many felt balls needed for rectangular rug, Felt ball average size is 2.2 cm, you can easily through felt ball size. If you still need help let me know i will calculate and let you know.
How many felt balls would be needed for the 5×8, I am not good at math at all.
A 5X8 Inches rug is : 152 cm (width)x 243 cm (height)
So when each balls average size in diameter is : 2cm
- 152 cm will consume(divide by 2) : 76 felt balls
-243 cm will consume : 122 felt balls
Now multiply both : 122x 76 = 9272 Felt balls
It will cost you around : 650 USD for 10000 felt balls plus shipping around for 20 kg parcel 320 USD = 970 USD
I would love to know where to get felted balls at a wholesale price. I love this rug and the links provide a pretty good resource to finishing it but with the cost of supplies (at least the ones I found) it seems like a costly craft. The kind where it is cheaper to buy a finished product rather than making it yourself.
