Textile artist Babette Leertouwer
Babette’s inspiration is find in nature and filosophy. During Babette’s study at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute in 2007 she did research on the wabi sabi philosophy. It’s about imperfection, the acceptance that nothing stays as it is, slow-living and awareness.

“My Halona wall hangings of wool, invites you to touch and feel, your senses should be used. Here we can find answers for today’s big challenges.”
Wool can save the world, that’s what this article is about.




Ancient craft; wet felting
The wool wall hangings are made by wet felting. This is an ancient craft that only needs warm water and green soap. My hands do the rest, they rub the wool fibers togehter; it’s like meditation. All the colors of the wool are natural, there’s no dying.




Cicular economy
Working with local Dutch wool means helping to create a circular economy. These days Dutch wool is a restproduct and seen as waste.
We forgot the beauty of wool. Also wool has so many benefits. A wall hanging of wool will improve the acoustics in your interior.


Bring natural, handmade art into your interior with a Halona wool wall hanging.
Choose a slow-life; a deeper appreciation of sensory experiences, and the ability to ‘live in the present moment’
