Wet Felted 2D Vase of Flowers Workshop - The Craft Room Tarporley

Discover the art of wet felted vases of flowers at this fabulous workshop in July at the renowned Craft Room Tarporley.

Unleash your creativity and dive into the world of wet felting at our upcoming workshop. Hosted by Vicky, of Needlessly Felted, this workshop promises participants an immersive experience in crafting stunning still life flower vase pictures through the mesmerising technique of wet felting.

Wet felting is an ancient craft that involves using water, soap, and agitation to transform raw wool fibres into a dense and malleable material. In this hands-on workshop, participants will have the opportunity to learn the intricacies of wet felting and create their own beautiful landscape designs under the expert guidance of local artist Vicky Pulman.

Participants will be provided with all the necessary materials, including -

High-quality wool fibres in a dazzling array of colours, textures and types
Hand spun and dyed artisan yarns
Raw and dyed silk fibres
Sari silk fibres and scraps
Curly locks in all colours
Bubble wrap
Fine mesh
Rolling and fulling tools
Natural olive oil soap.
Water sprays

We advise attendees to wear a pinny! Rubber gloves may be used if preferred. Please bring a small hand towel and something with which to carry your wet work home.
You will go home with a complete felted piece. Once it is dry you may choose to add to it with needle felting or hand/machine embroidery. We would love to see your finished work!

The workshop will cover essential 2D wet felting techniques, colour blending, and design principles, as well as a look at the properties of each fibre type, allowing attendees to express their artistic visions in a tactile and dynamic way.

Spaces for this workshop are limited to 8 due to the space required, so early registration is encouraged. Attendees are invited to bring inspiration or reference photos to personalise their landscapes. Finished piece will be roughly A4.
12-4pm. Light refreshments provided - welcome to bring own snacks & drinks.

Parking is readily available within walking distance of the workshop venue.
