EASTER THEME WORKSHOP

 

I really enjoy teaching especially to see how the young & old making something together!

 

Felting is indeed a great bonding activity! I hope my students enjoy felting too! 

 

NADA 2015 FELTING DEMO + WORKSHOPS

CREATIV FESTIVAL 2014 @WORKSHOPS

This is Cecilia Ho, our fiber artist & DIY kit designer, 

second year as Guest Instructor at Creativ Festival. 

 

A total of 3 felting workshops were offered during the event.

 

 

 

A special THANK YOU to Harmonique Fibre Arts Supply Inc. 

(Ashford NZ's Canadian distributor) who generously sponsored all

felting needles & felting foams for the workshops!

 

  

 Oct 23 : 3-hr Wool Felted Cake Keepsake 

It's nice to have a small group on Thursday morning.

Time flew by so fast & 3 hours is really not enough!

 

But glad to teach a group from local Ontario

PLUS one who traveled from NY to attend this class!

 

-------------------------------------------

Oct 24 : 1.5-hr Wool Stocking (2D Needle Felting)

 

This is another fun class to teach a group

who never encounter felting before!

 

After their first try-out, they enjoy so much

& making something special for their special ones!

 

As a teacher, it's always happy to share what I know.

And always it's nice to know my students are happy about their works!

 

-------------------------------------------

 

Oct 25 : 1.5-hr Felt-a-Tote

 



 

This was a large group with a whopping 15 students in this workshop.

 

Most likely Saturday morning class is the best schedule for most to attend.

 

We all had an amazing time!

Especially each can go through a big pile of wool fibers

& choose her own colors to create her own design & needle felt on the tote bag.

 

I wish I could capture all unique tote bags from everyone.

The more important is that everyone enjoys needle felting after all.

FELTASTICFASHION X METAL X GLASS

For the very first time, I spent 5 days & 4 hours each days (20 hours in total)

learning a brand new craft while my children are in the other art-related programs!

 

 

I enjoyed every single moment to discover new media.

 

FELTASTICFASHION X METAL X GLASS

 

 

First off, my lovely children also enjoyed every day creative activities at the Fine Art Camp!

 

I've learnt using different type of glass & metal materials.

 

This one is using float glass & copper before firing.

 

Also using 90 coe glass & copper; as well as 90 coe glass & Kiln paper.

 

 



 



The results are very interesting after firing!

 

I also learned to use float glass with the mixed colored glass pieces & copper & gold.

 

At last I also learned to design the metal frame & how to cut the metal too!

 

 

I am happy to spend a whole week in the metal & glass studio

that allow me to create non-stop with new media!
