Working with Wool: Felting Workshop

The Studios of Cocoa Beach will host a Working with Wool workshop on Saturday, December 3, from 5:30 to 8:30 pm.  Glaucia Romano will help you explore several ways of felting woolen fiber into a variety of items

Felting is an ancient technique of creating a non-woven fabric from animal fibers.  It can be done with soap and water, or with a felting needle.  Both processes bind the fibers together creating a permanent, irreversible bond. Students will work on a project they chose, at their own pace and experience level. A two dimensional flat textiles, created by soap felting, creates cloth, pictures for framing, handbags, hats and more.  Three dimensional sculptural works, usually involving needle felting, can be flowers, plushy creatures or even beads!

Glaucia has a Masters Degree in Art Education and is a certified Art Educator in the state of Florida. She has taught art classes for at least 15 years in the public and private sector to children and adults.  She has a wide knowledge of various art media and processes and can’t wait to share them with you!

Fee for the class is $65 which includes all materials.  Register at the Studios website, www.studiosofcocoabeach.org.
