You start with a ball of the wool and push the special barbed needle into it over and over. The handy templates guide you to make the shapes. This isn’t a quick project. The felting takes a little time and you need to continue to felt the pieces into the shapes. Also, I wouldn’t recommend watching TV while felting. Trust me, one or three jabs with the needle into your finger will teach you. Some nice music while you’re making this is a much better idea!
Once you have all your felted pieces, you needle felt them together. No gluing or sewing. Punch, punch, punch with the needle and the wool is held together.
Here are some of the wonderful Handmade Holiday projects available from the EK Success Brands.
I was provided with supplies from EK Success Brands to create this project. No other compensation was received. All opinions are mine.

I loved it so much that I submitted your tutorial. They have an area where anyone can suggest a link (gossip site) and I thought this deserving!
