Needle Felted Mice

In this fun and creative 2-hour needle felting workshop, your tutor Tracy will guide you step-by-step in making an adorable white mouse using needle felting techniques and a wire armature.

Suitable for beginners, you will use soft natural sheep wool fibres, wrapping the wool around a wire armature to build the basic shape. With specialist barbed felting needles, you’ll learn how to sculpt the wool into smooth 3D forms and bring your mouse to life.

You’ll finish by adding characterful details, including bead eyes and realistic whiskers. By the end of the session, you’ll have a charming handmade mouse to take home and the confidence to continue exploring needle felting on your own. 

All materials are provided, and by the end of the workshop you’ll take home your own beautifully handcrafted mouse, along with the confidence and skills to continue needle felting at home.

No previous experience is required—just bring your curiosity and enjoy a calm, hands-on making experience.
