Wrapping wool covered balls...
...with bright roving and colorful yarn ties.
Variegated 'thick and thin' yarn...
...is used to create spirals and other festive designs.
Wet-felting with soap, hot water...
...and lots of rubbing and rolling.
...drying.
All of them together...
...with their various decorative accents...
...standing in a row...
...or clustered around 'mother'! ;)
They do take a long time to air dry...
...but you can speed that up by simply using them right away!
They work beautifully as intended...
...(as non-chemical fabric softeners in the tumble dryer)...
...and they 'collect' any errant tissues...
...that make it through the wash cycle!! :)

That's an ingenious idea. I did wonder for a moment whether you were making a felt orrery....!
Rachel--What a wonderful word!!! (I'm ashamed to admit that I had to look it up...but it's brilliant!)
...and you're so right...they do look like planets!! :)
