Make your own Fairy Lights

Fairy lights adorn your tree, shimmer in windows, decorate a wall and glisten in vases. Fairy lights are an all year round mood lifter, they'll glow in a room and most importantly they light-up your tree at Christmas.

Knitshop.co.uk are offering, due to very popular and persistent demand, a fairy light felting workshop. Just in time for decorating your tree before Christmas, this workshop will encourage students to learn the art of felting and to felt beautiful artefacts to surround fairy lights ready to adorn your Christmas tree or interior décor.

This limited workshop will be held at the Lee Green knitshop.co.uk Boutique Outlet in South London and will be held by Julieta Brandao. This will be an extended workshop, three and a half hours, from 2.30pm until 6pm on the 26th of November. Make sure you book your place in advance as this workshop is sure to sell out in the next few days.

The workshop will begin with a crash course teaching the basics of felting, choosing materials and the best techniques to achieve felted fabrics and artefacts. Based on picture felting the skills gained here can be used for other personal projects.

The workshop will go at the students pace, with all beginners and improvers welcome. Attention will be focused individually so that all students understand the basics. The class will progress onto the fairy lights project, choosing colour palettes and designing felted art forms to surround the fairy lights.

Creativity and individuality is encouraged, this promises to be a very exciting and unique course. The knitshop.co.uk team will help students create their art-forms and fix them to the fairy lights. All students will be able to complete one project during the course of the class or will be well instructed to finish the project in their own time and will be able to take this home and use within their own home.

The class includes all materials necessary as well as light refreshments.

The class is aimed at candidates of all abilities and we welcome any novices. Children are also welcome to attend the class as long as they are accompanied by an adult. The class promises to be a relaxing environment with plenty of socialising and Christmas vibes!

The Felted Fairy Lights Workshop is followed by two fantastic Christmas themed felting workshops

All three workshops cover different topics and are going hand in hand to create your very own stunning Christmas Jewellery and Decoration.
