Description

Learn the art of felt making in a unique heritage setting at Pinhey's Point Historic Site. Led by Ann from Shepherds' Spring Farm, you will create a thin, translucent cover for a glass lantern filled with fairly lights. Once felted, the cover will glow beautifully from within. This workshop requires no sewing and is beginner friendly. Using loose fluffy wool, silk, and other fibers, participants will create a lantern cover that looks beautiful both with and without the lights on. All materials are included in the cost of registration, including the glass lantern and the fairy lights. The project will be completed during the workshop; however, participants will receive instructions to inspire future projects at home. Light refreshments will be served.
