Education: Tamzen Lundy has a Beginners Feltmaking Taster Session

Published on by Feltmakers Ireland

As part of August Craft Month, Feltmakers Ireland member Tamzen Lunday is teaching on Sunday, 20th August, from 1pm-4pm at the lovely studio and shop – Brookwood Pottery in Marino Mart, Fairview Dublin.

Only 4 places are available, at €60 each, all materials provided.

You can secure your place directly on Tamzen’s website –https://www.tamzenlundydesigns.ie/services-1

This half-day class will offer you an insight into wet feltmaking. You will learn some skills like making a bobble. Making a rope and trying out 3D feltmaking by making a small pod. She will also show and hopefully inspire you to try out these different techniques.

How might you apply these in your creative development? Are you a TY Student going on to study Art at Leaving? This would give you a new skill, textiles and sculpture combined!

Are you starting out on a PLC course in September? Perhaps putting together a portfolio?… This taster session might inspire you for projects to include that will set you apart.

Or are you just looking for something new, a new craft? Wet felting is very sensory; learn to explore your own creativity and try it out with this taster.
