Learn to wet-felt beautiful flowers of hand-dyed merino wool fibers, silk, and sparkly Angelina fibers to add a bit of bling to your precious posey. Perfect to make a flower brooch to wear or to enhance your favorite hat, purse or wall hanging. This is a great class for both beginners and the more experienced felter. Students will learn to make pre-felt, a technique that can be used in lots of other felting projects; how to add dimension to a felted piece; how to make those cute wool beads that can also be used to make jewelry; and how to make a curly tendril or short vine. All skill levels.  Ages 14+.  $15.00 Kit required, payable to the instructor.
