Needle Felting Kit, Raccoon
Discover the joy of transforming a bundle of natural wool fibre into a needle felted animal with this gorgeous craft kit for adults and teens. It makes the perfect gift for someone creative who loves using their imagination.
Needle felting is a form of sculpture using a barbed needle and carded wool roving. It is easy to master and the techniques are fairly simple and repetitive. Just like any other craft form, it takes a little practice and every new project you try will teach you something new. This kit has been designed for people who love making things with their hands. Anyone who enjoys craft can give this project a go and make a cute little raccoon to be proud of.
Inside the box you will find lots of cruelty-free natural wool in shades of grey, cream, yellow, green and brown. Plus armature wires to make your creature pose and move if you are into stop frame animation! There are full photographic, step-by-step instruction cards, a needle felting basics guide, a pair of glossy eye pins and three specialist needles.
This has all been hand-packed with love into a stylish gift box in our small Hertfordshire studio.
You will also need a soft surface to work on. A sponge will do if you are just starting or add one of our foam felting mats to your order.
Please note: This is not a toy. Anyone under the age of 14 should be supervised by an adult.
Reviews
Pros: comes with everything you need. Can make a really adorable raccoon if you stick with it. Good for beginners who are already very crafty. Pictures for every step! Cons: too many references like "take a small amount". How much is small? Tail and scarf were impossible to do the way they instructed. I free handed my own tail and crocheted a scarf instead.
Bought this kit at the craft fayre and love how detailed the project is. Learnt lots of new skills and thoroughly enjoyed every minute...especially the fur
Loved this kit. My son is a bid Guardians of the Galaxy fan so I turned the very cute raccoon into Rocket
