#500: Flowers with Flair
Michelle Martin
Thursday (July 22), 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM
Difficulty: BEGINNER
This is wet felting technique class suitable for beginners to intermediate felters. Students will use a resist to create lovely three dimension trumpet style flowers. We will play with color blending, creating lovely flowers with a natural vibrancy to them. We will also learn how to sculpt the wool into the desired shape as our flowers begin to felt. Students will have time to try this technique two or three times to really have a chance to play and create. We will also create and add stems to our flowers and embellish them with small beads if desired.
