Get into the holiday spirit by creating your very own adorable needle felted Christmas mouse! Whether your mouse ends up clutching a peppermint wreath or bundled up with a tiny scarf and festive fish, you'll leave with a handmade holiday decoration that's full of personality and charm.
This beginner-friendly, two-hour class is perfect for anyone who's ever wanted to try needle felting. We'll guide you step by step through the entire process, so no experience is necessary. All materials are included, and you'll head home with your finished Christmas mouse, a few new skills, and the sudden realization that stabbing wool is surprisingly therapeutic.
Warning: Christmas mice have a tendency to multiply. One year it's a single mouse on the mantel. The next year they're apparently hosting an entire holiday village.
What you’ll learn:
• Needle felting basics (aka how to stab wool, not yourself)
• Building a simple animal shape from scratch
• Attaching ears, arms, and tiny mouse feet
• Creating and layering hat/scarf/gift - whatever you want to add to your tiny friend that looks feeds your Christmas spirit.
• Adding facial details that somehow make everyone say “aww” out loud
What’s included:
• All wool and supplies
• Felting Needles and foam mat
• Step-by-step instruction with plenty of help
Perfect as a gift, a keepsake, or a heartfelt “I made this instead of buying another candle” moment but I didn't have the time to start making Christmas gifts when Jesus was a boy....
