Shoes? (sorry, I am craft-impaired)

I just googled "felt" and the first hit was "felt bicycles." I had no idea that was possible. :)

Maybe a felt book bag.

I second all of these suggestions. I have seen people make these kinds of things with felt and it tends to turn out pretty cool.

This is one of the many reasons I love Etsy.com - inspiration :)

Flowers - big or small - also good for hats and hair clips
Food or Animals! and more Animals! or a shark iphone case, or clocks, or lots of numbers/letters/shapes to make into badges, head pieces or jewellery.
Comfy shoes/slippers
Some sort of bag or bag organiser
Cushions and Pillows
Banners or Garlands or Puppets or Finger Puppets or Wreaths or Skulls or Catnip toys or a Crown
My personal favourites would be zombie uterus and it's other adult pin cushions or happy uterus

Hint: clicky, lots-o-links - felt is the shiznit :D

TV cozy. You could even include other objects which are also made of felt and have velcro on them so that your TV can display things which are actually interesting and entertaining. And interactive!

You could make a felt 'coat' for your car if you live in a snowy place.. should be easier to pull the felt cover off the car along with the snow than chip the snow off the car no? :P

That's a great idea! I've never heard of a valid use for a television before.
