If you have been wanting to learn how to wet felt a bowl, a hat, a bag, a purse or just an artistic vase or vessel, this beginner tutorial is the wet felting video that will help you get started. Wet felting over a resist is the key to creating wet felted bowls, vessels, hats, bags, slippers and more! Last week we shared our top tips for wet felting over a resist so you can reference some key points when you need them, and this week Marie will show you step by step how to wet felt a beautiful artistic bowl or vessel that you will love to make, display and share.
We do have kits in great color ways and you can choose a kit with batting or fine Merino fibers, either one comes with fabulous luster fibers and embellishments. Plus you only need a few supplies to dive into this very beginner friendly wet felting project.
