Learn to make felted soap, a great holiday gift idea, and a skill to have for all seasons to come!

Participants will learn the basics of wet felting and apply it to making felted soaps. This is a sensory activity, making it great for children! Participants will also learn basic needle felting to add various designs or words to their felted soaps.
