Did you ever think you could draw, paint or even sculpt with sheep's wool or alpaca fleece? Well, you can! We will use colorful animal fibers to create uniquely textured artwork and practical objects. Each day will focus on different wet felting and needle felting techniques.
Projects will include wet felted beads and landscapes "paintings", a needle felted bottle cap pin, and needle felted characters.
