Join Carolyn Ballard of Creative South West for an inspiring session of sustainable creativity in her "Fabulous Felted Flower Vase" workshop. This unique workshop invites you to transform a recycled rigid plastic bottle into a stunning and functional piece of art.
About the Workshop:
In this eco-friendly workshop, you'll have the chance to create a beautiful felted flower vase, starting with a simple recycled plastic bottle. Under the expert guidance of Carolyn, you'll explore the art of wet felting to craft a unique and expressive design using a resist. The workshop focuses on utilising textured and embellishment fibers like silk and bamboo, laid out on merino wool, to achieve your personal vision.
Carolyn will provide clear demonstrations and explanations of each stage of the wet felting process, ensuring you can confidently shape and fit the plastic bottle into your finished vase. Emphasising sustainability, the workshop uses no single-use plastics, employing only gentle olive oil soap and water in the creation process. The result is a reusable vase that can be easily washed and refreshed between flower displays.
