Japanese Paper Felted Pot
COURSE FULL

Japanese paper has special qualities that mean that it stands up to the felting process when Western style papers just disintegrate, making it a perfect medium for making beautiful felted objects. Using a straightforward process of wet felt making, create a little Japanese inspired blue and white felt pot.

You will learn the basics of 3D wet feltmaking and will complete a decorated felt pot to take home.  Our tutor puts glass test tubes into hers to turn them into vases, or keep it as a lovely ornament.

Suitable for complete beginners or those who already enjoy experimenting with felting processes

All materials included in the workshop fee.

3D Illustrated Cards

Come and join us for a fun workshop creating 3D illustrated cards.

You can choose between making a layered card like a tunnel book construction or if you'd prefer you could use the tutor's greenhouse template and your imagination, to create a building or story of your choice. You could make a winter greenhouse or shed/fish shack, or a tent.

Use the workshop to extend your knowledge of materials and improve your drawing. We'll be using a range of materials - watercolours, dip pens, fine liners, pencils, coloured pencils and ink.

By the end of the session you will have a unique 3D card of your own to give to someone, perhaps for Christmas or for a special occasion.
