Spring Chicks

Join guest artist Debbie Penley for this burst of spring cuteness, and needle felt this trio of adorable baby birds in their nest. These cute bird babies in their nest are a perfect beginner project. An adorable spring time pick me up, tucked on a branch from the garden, or displayed on a desk or table.

THIS CLASS REQUIRES A KIT. There are two kit versions in the shop:

  • THIS one includes felting tools (needles and felting foam), along with the wool,
  • THIS one only has the wool, for those who already have felting tools (perhaps from a prior class with Debbie)

*If you are an experienced felting artist please feel free to contact us for a materials list in lieu of the purchased kit

cushy cookies

On the twelfth day at the Clay House, my true love gave to me, 12 cushy cookies, 11 singing stars, 10 , 9 stellar strings, 8 fluffy frosties, 7 folded flurries, 6 wooly wreaths, 5 button baubles! 4 nordic stars, 3 sparkling snowflakes, 2 festive flowers and a sleepy sloth for my holiday tree!

Why cushy cookies? Because these fluffy wonders use a cookie cutter to get the felting process started. Curious about felting? This is an easy entry level project that will get you hooked on this traditional craft!

There’s an optional kit available in our shop for this course, or you can assemble your own materials from our list if you’ve done some felting before.

fluffy frosties

On the eighth day at the Clay House my true love gave to me, 8 fluffy Frosties, 7 folded flurries, 6 wooly wreaths, 5 button baubles! 4 nordic stars, 3 sparkling snowflakes, 2 festive flowers and a sleepy sloth for my holiday tree.

Felting occurs when wool fibers are agitated together with a special felting needle. This is a very easy entry level felting project that can be customized to give your frosty the snowman their own personality.

We’ve put together an optional kit for the class with all the materials and tools you will need. You can find it in our online shop here. Students will also receive an email with a full list of supplies.
