Felted Jewellery workshop

16 October @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

£90

Try your hand at making felted jewellery with textile artist Vickie Orton. Using a mixture of wet felting and needle felting techniques you’ll come away with at least 2 pieces of unique jewellery. Using coloured merino wool, you will learn how to make necklaces, bracelets and earrings, all to your own design.

This course is suitable for beginners and advanced felters alike. Due to the use of sharp felting needles the course isn’t recommended for under 7s.  All materials are provided including sterling silver earring findings. There will be an option to buy more materials at the end of the course.
