We are excited for local artist Loretta Radeschi to return to Laurel Arts for another Needle Felting class. This time she will be taking her art to a new level as students create Christmas ornaments by using cookie cutters to make the shapes. The participants will lay the cutters on a foam board and poke wool into the shape. Once enough wool has taken the shape of the cutter, it will be turned over and needle felted on the reverse side. This makes the base of wool more substantial. Each piece can be made as thick or as thin as the participant would like. Once the desired thickness is reached, decorating begins. The round ornaments can be made by forming a ball out of wool. Feel free to bring your favorite cookie cutters. Students will be able to complete three ornaments.
Loretta will provide all the materials needed. No experience necessary. This class is designed for students ages 8 through adult.
Class takes place on Saturday, November 12 at 1pm to 3pm at 601 Georgian Place, Somerset.
The cost for the workshop is $25 nonmembers/$20 members payable to Laurel Arts plus a $8 materials fee payable to Loretta Radeschi.
