Beginner Wet Felting over a Resist Tutorial - Hurricane Candle Holders

[@LivingFelt]

Shop Supplies: feltingsupplies.livingfelt.com/ww-wf-candle-holders Thank you everyone! We hope you enjoy our new Wooly Wednesday format! Let us know your favorite takeaway was from this tutorial, and how you will decorate your wet felted candle holders! Comment below to be entered into our prize drawing for next week!

[@noellerussow9816]

Favorite takeaway is that shrinkage is impeded by resistance and one must consider that especially in the choice of fiber…

[@pamelafrench2667]

I appreciated learning about the importance of directional rolling for this project

[@lindabrookes2069]

My "a-ha" moment was hearing you say "removing some of the water closes the space between the fibres". I always knew that getting rid of some water made it full faster, but I didn't know why.

Me too!

Excited to see what Living Felt has in store for us in 2023 🥰

[@starliaphillips]

I think it's a great project. You make me want to wet felt. 🙂

[@AnnArbaugh-Author]

Me too! I make needle felted projects all the time. This video might give me a little 'break' once in a while.

[@lindawonser6405]

So glad this can be re watched! This was perfect timing to add knowledge for an upcoming class I have planned!

[@terriberth2715]

Marie, I'm still a novice felter having done 2D & 3B pieces and never had much interest in wet felting. I admire the beautiful work I see displayed by others with amazing shawls, pictures or purses. I wasn't going to watch today because it was wet felt and I wasn't interested. WAS I WRONG!. Watching you make the beautiful and simple vessel you might have created a monster. I think I may have to give this "wet felting" concept a try. If my old body holds out, this may be fun! Your tutorial was great. Thanks for being such a patient and detailed teacher.🥰

[@LivingFelt]

We can't wait to see yours, Terri! :)

[@noellerussow9816]

I was intimidated by wet felting and wasn’t interested but once I tried it, I fell in love all over again

[@terriberth2715]

@@LivingFelt I'm putting the wet felt starter kit on my Wish List. I have a couple of commissions to finish before I spend more money. I'm looking forward to watching the next Wednesday tutorials to learn even more. Have a super week-end and thanks for your continued support.🤩

Idk what is is about the pillar candle holder but it is so beautiful with that curly stranded wool!! If i had candles like those I would try this in a heartbeat!! Keep it coming ladies! Excited for another year of learning with you

[@filomenariviello9574]

This was a great tutorial! Thank you!

[@LivingFelt]

You're very welcome!

[@barbarabiesk5036]

Would love to make one. Just received my wet felting kit a few days ago. Can't wait to get started. Thanks for the tutorial!!!

[@LivingFelt]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@darleneduruttya8612]

Great project over a resist for a wet felt beginner. So many ways to dress it up. Love the short version and the Q&A where lots of questions can be addressed.

[@carolaschindler439]

I like to do format. And the Q&A afterwards was great. And the examples of how people I've made vessels was wonderful.

[@LivingFelt]

Great to hear!

[@tammydaniels7159]

hello everyone from south carolina

[@noellerussow9816]

I think the graphics added will be really useful for those that need a visual explanation. Great job on those and the new format..

[@LivingFelt]

Awesome, thank you!

[@lindaday6797]

Love this project and there are so many different size options! Thanks,

[@P-Doodle]

I know what I’m doing tonight 💚

[@WoolandWildflower]

I'll be looking at bottles and other containers in an entirely new way! Thank you -

[@dragonrider088]

This is one of my favorite wet felting projects! I made several Christmas centerpieces last year and the centers were these hurricane lights! They are quick and easy to make, so if you’ve never wet felted before, this is a good project to start with!

[@LivingFelt]

So fun! They are beautiful, too. P9

[@carolaschindler439]

This was fun. Great birthday gifts

[@tammypopp314]

Such a short demo but I do like the end result

[@bonnieroberts7098]

Great tutorial! Thanks Marie

[@barbarabiesk5036]

I was thinking of adding little flower around the top. Just have to learn how to make them. Just started needle felting and fell in love with all the options of wet felting. Watching all of your tutorials and love them. Your kind spirit just shines through and you are a joy to watch!

[@LivingFelt]

Thank you so much 🤗💕💜

[@mazspigt1705]

Great informative tutorial (can't wait to try make one). Also the Q & A were so good and so many tips/ideas. Thank you

[@LivingFelt]

Glad it was helpful!

[@AnnArbaugh-Author]

Wow, this looks great! I can see myself making one in autumn colors and in a pumpkin-ish shape.

[@kristinaiodice3855]

I know what I'm making this weekend!

[@fayes3374]

I like the new format!

[@TanyishaStra]

i will do something, too! :) this format is great, thank you

[@kellylr01]

Loving this new format! Pre recorded videos flow so nice and are quick!

Loved the tutorial.

This looks so fun, I have 6 birthdays in February and this would be fun to make for them.

[@monicadrewry4892]

So pretty! ❤

[@lindaroepken9100]

Great job!

[@kristinabourne9100]

Beautiful! I've wanted to make one of these for a long time. Thank you so much for the helpful tutorial! Planning to head to the recycle center and dig through the bins. :)

[@suzannecushing1546]

This is so cool!

[@brendabennett4299]

Love this Gota try it I love candles

[@lindaburda9941]

Pretty

[@maryrecio7672]

Thanks for a great video. I was just going to make a cylinder form and the refresher instructions will help a lot.

[@LivingFelt]

You bet

[@jenniferr8195]

These look so nice! Enjoyed watching this!

[@cariad_se]

This was really inspiring! I got lots of ideas, this will be my Saturday fun project!

[@barbarasea4068]

Fun project. Thanks.

[@LivingFelt]

Thanks for watching!

[@kaylogan3218]

The viscose really stands out beautifully.

[@loriscarbrough8919]

So cool a little late to the group

[@kimberlypulli8356]

cant wait to try

[@tammymutton5924]

Can't wait to try this project!

[@brendascanlon3065]

Loved this tutorial! You make everything look so easy. I have all the supplies except the dowel! Where do I find the worksheet please?

[@LivingFelt]

follow the supply link in description

[@Lpaddle]

I loved this video and have made a few since! I think they’re great. Wondering if the candle could be put in a little tea light holder or if the jar has to be large enough to cover the entire vessel’s interior?

[@rhondalynn1599]

Do you have a link for the wood base lights you used?

@@LivingFelt thank you!!

[@theedwards3056]

Hi I would like to try making a round vessel. Where would you add extra wool for the base?

[@LivingFelt]

At bottom on both sides - think of it as a half circle on side a and half on side b.

[@theedwards3056]

@@LivingFelt thank you

[@pixgeekphotography]

I missed the live, what is a resist???? What material is that? Thank you Is there any other materials we can use as a resist that we may have at home?

[@LivingFelt]

Resist is a material that prevents the 2 sides from felting together. Ours is a thin foam product that is reusable.

[@LarkinWiegert]

What is that water sprinkle bottle called?

[@LivingFelt]

ball brause

[@loriscarbrough8919]

So is this prerecorded?

[@LivingFelt]

YES! New this year is a new video every WED with some having a LIVE HANG after (like today)

[@odettebarea5772]

Hi Creative women, Help please! I listen to your video: "Beginner Wet Felting over a Resist Tutorial - Hurricane Candle Holders" I'm a beginner. When I looked how you make the resit: I don't understand how the "Resist Pattern" appear to be higher than wider. The 7" are the bottle circumference, so it goes around the bottle and the bottle high is only the height of the bottle, isn't it? Please, would you tell me where I'm lost? Thank-you.

[@tinaparman6046]

Like the new format, but miss the fairies

[@LivingFelt]

They are on the live hang :)

[@noellerussow9816]

I don’t understand the “handout” you mentioned…
