WHO IS THIS KIT SUITABLE FOR?
Anyone who can focus on safely using a needle :)
Over half the people who trial my kits are beginners so you can feel confident that they are easy to follow.
I have designed them to suit someone who has literally never held a felting needle before, whilst also providing those with more experience with some extra tips and tricks along the way.
It's a delightful gift for someone who has had a yearning to be creative but doesn't necessarily want to invest in buying all the materials needed to make something like this.
(IF YOU'RE WELL STASHED UP THEN CONSIDER THE DOWNLOADABLE TUTORIAL)
CHILDREN must be supervised due to the super sharp barbed needle. Parents/carers - please use your own judgement as to whether or not your child is old enough to do this project. As a guide, over 9s seem to have the focus to needle felt. Personally I love to encourage younger children to enjoy the tactile nature of wet felting. They can then grow into Needle Felting when the time is right.
