Description:
Wet Felting Pot Workshop. This workshop gives participants all the basic information and skills to learn the technique of 3D wet felt making using a Nuno felting method with a resist. This method of felting uses soap, warm water and agitation to tangle fibres together to create felt. In approximately 2.5 hours you will explore making a colourful decorative small pot, you will be guided through choosing colours and textures and the wet felting process.
You do not need any prior experience and you will be provided with all the necessary materials and equipment.
Felt is surprisingly strong and no two pieces will ever be the same, this is the time to embrace your creativity and add your personal mark.
What’s included:
All materials, equipment and tuition to support and guide you through the process of wet felting using traditional hand rolling techniques. You will be guided through choosing colours and textures and then the wet felting process to sculpture felt into a small pot. We will look at how to further enhance your work with embellishments such as beads and embroidery to add further surface texture and detail. You will also receive PDF notes to take away with you for reference later.
Suitable for:
Adults. This workshop is suitable for all levels from complete beginners to those with experience. Please note: A certain degree of upper arm fitness is required, participants may find it easier standing up while felting. Please contact me if any special arrangements are required.
