Wet Felting Workshop

Description

Join us for a fun and creative wet felting workshop, perfect for beginners or experienced crafters.

You'll have the opportunity to experiment with merino wool and other special fibres to create a beautifully textured piece of art.

Choose from themes such as landscapes, florals, or seascapes. Inspirational examples will be shown on the day, but you are welcome to bring your own photographs to work from.

Course content

You will learn the process of using water and soap to bind merino wool fibres together. Your finished piece can be transformed into a wall hanging, cushion, bag, or you will be offered the option of framing your finished work, please note that there will be an additional cost for framing.  

All materials are provided. No previous experience of felting is necessary.
