Felted Soap

Yesterday the sun was warm and out in full.....today it was very wet grey and cold.....

So luckily yesterday we took the opportunity to try some wet felting.

I have played around with wet felting a little before but saw this fun tutorial for felted soap and thought it would be fun to try.

I found it quite therapeutic rolling the bars of soap in my hands creating a very sudsy mess.....

Some worked better then others. It would have been great to have added some needle felting to the design....maybe next time we have a go.

It was a fun thing to do out in the sunshine .

My Creative Space

I am loving my online felt class...it has been a very hectic week with work but making these felt beads was just what was needed.

Can't wait to begin my next project tonight.

Check out what others have been creating here.

Flowers

My online felting class started yesterday. Meg joined me in trying out the first very basic project...felt flowers.

Having never felted before I was unsure of how hard the process would be.....

too easy and it was quite addictive. I can see these may be appearing on a number of handmade goodies I have planned for Christmas gifts.

Felt- a - lious

 

I am taking my stash of wool and joining in my first online class starting Friday.....

I have had good intentions with this wool to teach myself felting.

But I now have the opportunity of being guided and taught by Emily and Nicole via their  online class.

It is not too late if you would like to join in....just head here for the details.

Hopefully I will have some things to show after the weekend.....or maybe I will have to keep them a secret as I am hoping to make some gifts for Christmas.
