Wet Felted Geode Workshop, Oromocto, NB

You are invited to come play with wool and make these beautiful felted wool geodes.

Geodes: a rock containing a cavity lined with crystals or other minerals.

In this workshop you will be learning how to wrap layers of wool, then wet felt by hand, to create a hollow sphere that is colourful when cut. You can use this technique to make other things, like small bowls, tree ornaments, etc…

We will then be decorating the inside with crystals, beads and sequins to give the geode effect. These decorative “rocks”, make great tree ornaments, shelf decorations or essential oil diffusers.
