About the event
Brighten up your kitchen or desk with a beautiful felted desert plant without the prickles! In this beginner friendly felting workshop, you will learn how to make a solid 3D sculpture entirely from wool fibers. We will use a special barbed needle to felt our projects and learn how to add dimension to the basic shape of your cacti and add colored fibers to make your cacti bloom. After felting, we will plant our cacti in a small terracotta pot and add decorative stones.
