APPLE HOUSES







This week I offered a class at my home on creating a wet-felted Apple House. The moms (and a dad) spent the day massaging the wet wool with hot soapy water until it took shape. The children moved in and out of the project, taking turns massaging and sculpting the house and playing on the slip-n-slide or swinging in the hammock. What a beautiful day! After a picnic lunch, we moved the fun indoors and went to work needle felting cute little mousies to live in the apple houses. Here are a few pictures of our creations.
