Learn to wet felt soap & create fun gifts! November 30, 10 a.m. - Noon Join this 2-hour workshop and learn the ancient art of wet felting — the process of transforming loose wool into felted fabric. This fiber art technique has been used in the making of rugs, homes (yurts) and clothing for centuries. And in this class, each student will make 2 felted soaps, with an option to create more in class for an additional materials fee. What are felted soaps? A felted soap is the union of felted wool covering a bar of soap, creating a gentle exfoliating soap that’s anti-microbial and long lasting. The wool wrapped around the soap becomes a seamless piece of felt and can be embellished with interesting patterns and colors. In this class, felting artist Sylviane Collier will take you step by step through the felting process, starting with creating a color palette and design using a wide selection of dyed merino wool. Each student will make 2 felted soaps. And, if time and interests permit, additional soaps will be available to felt for $8 each (this fee can be paid in cash to the instructor). You may also purchase the supplies for the same price to continue felting soaps at home. The soaps used for this class are made with all natural ingredients, scented with essential oils and made in the U.S. For allergies or soap preference, students are welcome to bring their own soaps to wrap. No experience necessary. Ages 8+ welcome.
