Event Overview

Learn how to make beautiful felted soaps!

In this class we will go over the basics of felting and techniques for felting soap.

Everyone will be provided with three handmade soaps and their choice of colored wool* roving to felt.

Felted soap makes a beautiful gift or a wonderful luxury for your home. It has a built-in washcloth and the wool felt creates a luxurious lather and mild exfoliant. Also, did you know that wool is naturally anti-fungal? This means it will stay fresh and clean while you use it.

Once you get the hang of the felting process, you can recreate these gorgeous little bars at home. Wanting to make more of these beauties for party or wedding favors? Let me know and we can book a private event!

This is a BYOB event, so bring something to sip on while you work.

*Please let me know if you have any allergies prior to signing up for this class!

Minimum age

All ages welcome

What's Provided

I am a maker; a tactile person. If I am crafting something I am happy.

Shannon has a degree in architecture and experience in space staging, set dressing, prop styling, and event production. She participates in craft fairs selling brightly colored concrete planters made from recycled plastic containers. She and a group of girlfriends created a craft group, "Night on the Make". They get together over bottles of wine and make something from tie-dye tights to screen-printing to felted soap!

    Had a lot fun learning about the felting soap process from Shannon in a relaxed environment.
    Very informative and Shannon was happy to demonstrate additional felting techniques beyond the
    felted soaps. Definitely recommend for the novice that's interested in the process learning
    from a skilled and encouraging teacher!

    Such a wonderful experience! Shannon was so welcoming and really good at explaining how felting "works" so that I felt like I could easily make more on my own and branch out to other projects as well. My bars turned out really good! If you are on the fence about taking a class and feel intimidated - don't be! She is able to accommodate all "crafty" skill levels.
    Thank you!

    I loved everything about the Felted Soap class. Shannon was warm and friendly, and walked us thoroughly through the steps to create customised, gorgeous soaps. She was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to help us troubleshoot if our soaps weren't coming to fruition fast of us! Her selection of wool was incredible and I was so excited to work with such vibrant colours. Her space is cozy, and every single one of us in the class felt right at home! Take this class and create something pretty and functional for yourself (or for someone else as a gift!).

    Shannon's class was great! She unraveled all the mysteries of felting soap! We all walked away with 3 great looking bars. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who just wants to have fun and loves soap!

    Fabulous class - every knowledgeable and experienced instructor. Low key, laid back and productive! Shannon stayed with us through all 3 soaps even though it took a little longer than expected. And after having made 3 soaps I am ready to make more on my own! Very pretty, very nice for gifts or sale.

    Great class! I was interested in felted soap after seeing it at Anthropologie. Shannon did a great job of walking us through the process. You could really tell that she knows what she's doing. Also, all the supplies were included which is nice.
