Affiliate Disclaimer

FeltFox is a small craft blog built around felt projects, amigurumi patterns, and kids' crafts, and like most independent creators we sometimes earn a small commission when readers buy products through links on our site. This page explains exactly how that works, why it never costs you anything extra, and how we decide which supplies and tools actually earn a spot in our tutorials.

What an Affiliate Link Actually Does

When you click certain links on FeltFox — say, a link to a specific wool felt sheet, a crochet hook set, or a stuffing brand mentioned in a pattern — you may be taken to a retailer or marketplace we partner with. If you make a purchase, that retailer pays us a small referral fee. This is a standard arrangement used by craft blogs, recipe sites, and hobby publications everywhere, and it's one of the ways we keep FeltFox running without covering the site in intrusive ads.

No Extra Cost to You

This part matters most: using an affiliate link never changes the price you pay. The commission comes out of the retailer's marketing budget, not your wallet. Whether you buy the exact felt color we linked or something else entirely from the same store, your checkout total stays the same. We only benefit if the link leads to a completed purchase — there's no cost, hidden fee, or markup passed on to you.

Why We Include These Links at All

Felt crafting, amigurumi, and kids' craft projects almost always require specific materials — the right weight of felt, a particular yarn gauge, safety eyes that meet toy standards, or a reliable glue gun. Rather than leaving readers to guess or search endlessly, we link directly to the products we've actually used or would confidently recommend. It saves time and reduces the frustration of picking the wrong supply for a project like our animal coaster crochet patterns or a closet organization bin roundup.

How We Choose What to Link

Relevance and quality come first, commission comes second. Before a product link makes it into a tutorial, we consider:

• Whether the item genuinely fits the project — the right felt thickness, hook size, or fill material for the pattern at hand
• Durability and safety, especially for anything intended for children's toys or gifts
• Value for money compared to similar options on the market
• Our own experience using the product, or well-documented feedback from other crafters

We do not accept payment to feature a product we haven't vetted, and a higher commission rate is never a reason to recommend something that isn't a good fit for the project. If a cheaper or better alternative exists and we know about it, we'll mention that too. You can read more about how we evaluate and fact-check the projects we publish in our Editorial Policy.

Where You'll See These Disclosures

We aim to be upfront rather than bury this information in fine print. You'll typically find a short affiliate note near the materials list of a tutorial, at the top or bottom of a post that contains shopping links, and here on this standalone page. For a broader look at how sponsored content, gifted products, and partnerships are handled across the site, see our full Disclosure page, which covers more than just affiliate links.

What This Page Doesn't Cover

This disclaimer focuses specifically on affiliate marketing links. For information about general content accuracy and limitations — for example, that our craft tutorials are suggestions rather than guarantees of outcome — check our general Disclaimer. If you're curious about how images sourced from partners or stock libraries are credited, that's addressed separately in our Image Credits page, and questions about how we handle Pinterest-specific content and links are answered in our Pinterest Disclaimer.

Our Commitment to Honest Recommendations

We started FeltFox because we genuinely love making things by hand, and that's still the reason we publish new patterns and tutorials. Affiliate income helps offset hosting costs and the time it takes to test projects properly, but it will never come before giving you accurate, useful advice. If you ever feel a recommendation seems off, biased, or outdated, we want to know — you can learn more about who's behind the site on our About Us page, or reach out directly.

Questions or Concerns

If something on the site is unclear, if a link seems broken, or if you'd simply like more detail about a specific recommendation, reach out anytime at [email protected]. You're also welcome to use our Contact page for general questions, feedback, or partnership inquiries — the latter of which are outlined further on our Collaboration page. We update this disclaimer whenever our affiliate relationships change, so feel free to check back if you're ever unsure how something works.
