Learn about the surprising connections the enchanting red and white spotted mushroom has with holiday traditions while needle-felting your own.

It’s the most wonderful/stressful time of the year, so get out those holiday season frazzles by taking an hour and a half out of your schedule and stab, stab, stab your way to the most adorable little mushroom ornament. This step-by-step class will lead you through the simple construction of soft sculpture using needle-felted wool while you hear the tales and folklore associated with the famed fairy toadstool, the amanita muscaria mushroom. Whether you hang it on your tree or gift it to a friend, you’ll leave this class with lots of winter wonderment and the basics of needle-felting to construct other creations of your own.

Student should bring $5 (payable to the instructor) for the wool roving and any needle felting equipment (needles, pads) that they own.
