This is the sweetest kit!

I bought this kit and love it. Can't wait to give the nests away for Valentine's Day. i have a question. How do you keep the wool from sticking to the foam board? When I am felting and go to turn the object, it sticks to the board. HELP1 I don't want to buy a new board for each project.

Felt less in each spot before picking it up off the mat and changing its position. Keep picking it up from the mat and moving it more frequently so that it doesn't get as stuck. Some fiber will still attach to the mat, but that is normal. You can pick it off as best you can when you are finished with the project and the mat will still work for other projects. The more the nest wool gets felted as you go along, the less it will stick to the mat. I am going to be introducing some foam mat alternatives to the shop but since that will be awhile, you could look for "wool felting mat" or "burlap felting mat" on Etsy if you are struggling with the foam and see if you like those better. You could also try poking a little less deeply into the foam. You want to make sure you are getting through the layers of the nest, but it is not necessary with this project to poke way down into the foam.
