I don't even know what felt balls are :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: sounds like funxxxx
You get wool roving and use soap and hot water to roll it into balls, wet felting basically. The little balls are similar to pom poms but smooth. See sounds simple doesn't it, shouldn't have taken me so long to master! :rotfl::rotfl:Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -

Yep i found youlooks great so far
You might just like to move your cover image down a bit as you have cut off your dolls heads in the pic!
maybe wasn't viewable just because it was a brand new page but not sure! If privacy settings were on i wouldn't be able to see and post on page but i did so thats not an issue
Now you just have to start promoting itthere are lots and lots of vintage pages which i found when searching for you - i would start with going over and liking some of their pages. Also its a good idea to share a link to your pages on your own timeline etc if you have one and asking friends to like the page for you too.
I am only starting to do these things too so not too far down that road yet myself! xxxDebt at Aug 2010 (LBM) £21,908.86, Debt Freeeeee Date 4th Nov 2013 :j:j:j Massive Thanks to the £10 per day thread :A Next goals:Savings £1203.16/£10,000******Mortgage to Zero: £52,579.46 to go

7x Notelet Sets (4 in a set but each set counts as 1)
