Working on our Needle Felting handicraft series has been so rewarding! Each week, we work to develop learned skills and add new skills, and our project today is no exception. Today we are taking a big step by learning how to make an armature for a needle-felted sheep. This is an exciting step for us, as it feels like we've finally developed enough skills to create anything we want. What is an Armature? Erect sculptures of animals and humans need an armature to help support and position them. An armature can be thought of as similar to a...

Oh my goodness! You can't get any cuter than this needle-felted piglet! I think that as we get further and further into the handicraft of needle felting, our projects get more and more enjoyable, and more and more adorable. We're learning a lot as we go, including how to use the different tools, wool, and techniques. And as we learn, the results improve significantly. It's going to be fun, when we're done, to look back at our humble beginnings to see our improvements! Materials Needed If you've been following along with us in this needle felting series, you will already have all...

I've been a crafter my whole life. Yet somehow, I had never even heard of needle felting. This blows my mind! How did I miss this amazing hobby? The more my children and I get into it, the more I am surprised by the things we can make. It's really a beautiful craft, and I hope that you're able to follow along with us in creating these delightful projects. Today we are going to be making the cutest needle-felted Mother Hen. This is going to be a 2 part series, because a Mother...

Did you try our needle felted dryers balls with a ball of wool last week? These were a game changer for us, using them in the dryer with big, heavy loads of laundry. Today we are going to show you how to make smaller needle felted dryer balls, from wool roving. We like the smaller balls for smaller loads of laundry or for delicates. These are even easier and quicker to make than our dryer balls with a ball of wool. Be sure to watch our video below for the process. What are Dryer Balls? First, what exactly are dryer balls? We...

I am loving our new handicraft of needle felting! Have you tried it? It's so rewarding and exciting to see projects come together! Today we are going to show you how to make needle felted dryer balls from a ball of wool. There are so many versions of these DIY dryer balls throughout the internet. Over the next couple of weeks, I'm going to show you a couple of the simple ones, and you can choose which one you'd like to do. Why simple? Because no matter how much time, effort, and money you put into these balls, they...

We are so excited to be moving on to a new handicraft! We loved paper sloyd and cardboard sloyd, but looking back, we found that it limited our creativity. Now, as we get started with needle felting, we can literally feel the freedom to create bursting out of our minds and bodies! We are no longer limited to following specific instructions, and making specific models - we are now free to choose and to create whatever our hearts desire! As a family, we chose needle felting as our next handicraft because it is a handicraft we've been working...
