Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

Description

We will be using needle felting techniques to create your own needle felted art. There is a choice of kit offered at an additional cost on the day ranging from £15 for beginners kits - frog, penguin, pig £20 for beginners hare and £25 for a intermediate kit of a fox. Brooch kits and picture kits are £20. It is an opportunity to see a variety of needle felting styles as everyone creates their own unique pieces. We will have a range of fibres for you to use on the day and additional supplies available for you to buy to explore options at home as well. Imagination will be key to adding your own personality to your piece and making it unique. If you have a scene you are interested in exploring please bring the images with you. You can do a single day for £35 or both for £60. You will need to order your kit at the time of booking.

What's included in the price?

We will provide all the materials you will need to use on the day and will have a variety for you to buy to take home if you choose. We provide refreshments through the day but ask you to bring your own lunch. We ask for no seafood due to severe allergies. This craft is very addictive but such fun and relaxing.

Jayne reviewed: Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

"Was a bit apprehensive at first when I turned up as I had no idea what to expect as I have never been on a needle felting course before. However, our tutor, Rachel, was fantastic and put us at ease with lots of advice and tips on how to achieve a beautiful picture. I must say I was so pleased with the end result and can't wait to frame it. The course was excellent value for money. The materials were all provided on the day and there was also plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits to go round. A great day out and I'm glad I went. A great stress buster too!"

2 Inspire You responded:

" Thank you so much for your feedback. I am glad you enjoyed yourself too much. I look forward to seeing the picture in a frame. The stress relieving is defintely an added bonus to felting. I hope you are able to join us again soon for another workshop. Best wishes Rachel"

Katrina Evans reviewed: Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

"Rachel is a natural teacher who has an eye for guiding people to the best results but without telling them what to do - so you can learn by experience with an expert on hand to give an opinion if asked for. She has a big range of materials to use, and costs are very reasonable too. If you want a creative day with everything on hand and a nice atmosphere and friendly people, I would always recommend Rachel's felting classes."

2 Inspire You responded:

" Thank you so much! Nothing gives me more pleasure than seeing the pride in what everyone achieves. It is very addictive as a craft but so relaxing as well."

Ella Boyce reviewed: Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

"What a fabulous workshop! Rachel and Rhiannon were knowledgable, highly skilled and able to clearly teach, guide, help and support with this craft throughout the day. I felt as if I had learned so much and at the end of the day went home with a very nearly completed piece of art work which I keenly went on to finish the next day. The range of resources provided was excellent and it was especially inspiring to see examples of their own work. Feel as if I have found a craft that I want to keep on doing. Loved it and would definitely recommend!! Hoping to come again soon. Thank you so much"

2 Inspire You responded:

" Hi Ella, Thank you so much for the kind words. Please send me a photo of your finished piece if you get the chance I would love to see it. I did say it was dangerously addictive but so rewarding. We hope to see you back with us soon and see what we create next time. Happy felting Rach"

Fiona Thomas reviewed: Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

"A lovely day! I learned lots in a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere, took home a piece of art that can be hung on the wall and am inspired to continue this learning journey at home and on future courses. I would definitely recommend Rachel and the needle felt course. Three of us went together and we all thoroughly enjoyed it!"

2 Inspire You responded:

" Hi Fiona, Thank you so much for such a lovely review! I look forward to seeing more of your work and to having you join me again. It was a lovely relaxed day and all the pieces looked amazing. I hope your other friends may come and join in with you as well. Rach"

Martyn Williams reviewed: Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

"A fun and inspiring workshop. Great venue, plenty of room to work but also cosy enough to share experiences with class mates. Rachel made the day relaxed and taught me brand new skills that I will take away with me. Appreciated the encouragement and freedom to play around with lots of colours, materials, fabrics and use multiple techniques. I would definitely recommend the course, Rachel is a lovely teacher and the day just made me smile from start to finish."

2 Inspire You responded:

" Martyn, it was a complete pleasure to guide you along the journey to create your picture. I hope that you go on to create some more wonderful pieces. We look forward to seeing you again in October but if you need any help just get in touch. It was a lovely group today and so wonderful to see you all encouraging and inspiring each other. Happy felting"

Needle felted seascapes reviewed: Needle felted spring workshop with 2 Inspire You

"A very enjoyable course which allowed me to produce a felted seascape to take home. The time was really well allocated - everyone was able to complete their seascape in the day. Rachel explained the process really clearly and gave us all lots of help and advice. She provided a fantastic range of resources to choose from and was very helpful. It was lovely to see everyone so proud of their creations and I would definitely recommend this course!"

2 Inspire You responded:

" Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. I hope to see you again soon!"
