Wearable Felt Flowers

Wet felting is an ancient and magical hands-on fiber art process. It is also an excellent medium for exploring texture, color, and design. In this workshop, you will transform colorful, fluffy wool and silk fibers into your own uniquely designed felt flower pins. We'll begin with an outdoor stroll to pick flowers for inspiration, then we will use our hands and our imaginations--and a little water and soap--to create two wearable flowers. At the end of the workshop, you will receive a kit that includes everything you need to make more flowers at home.
No experience required. We have aprons, but please wear clothes suitable for artmaking. Dress appropriately for outdoor walking, and consider packing a picnic lunch to enjoy after the workshop.
