Want to try your hand at making these super cute succulents? Perfect for a windowsill or work space and they never need to be watered! This is a fairly involved project with so many little leaves to make, but with the video instructions, it can be tackled even by a beginner.
Felting time: about 3 hrs. per plant depending on individual felting speed.
Finished size: approximately 3.25-5.5" x 2.75"
Kit is beautifully packaged and includes:
Beginner's Guide to Needle Felting (a bit of general information) Instruction Sheet with pictures of every step Link to video instructions (highly recommended!) Leaf template Four color-coded felting needles in a handy paper tube Felting wool Three wooden pots
You will also need:
A mat to use as a work surface. Choose from foam, burlap, or wool. Once you have a mat, it can be used for many projects. Note that foam is the most economical but wears out the fastest. Burlap is my current favorite for this project.
This kit is intended for adults and kids over 10 yrs. who possess good manual dexterity, hand-eye coordination, and ability to work with focus and care. (Caution - felting needles are sharp!)
