This course is sold as a full recording of the livestream course.
Chick in the Egg Finger Puppet Livestream Course is an exciting new online learning format. We'll be working together live on air!
It is as close as possible to a face-to-face workshop format, it involves working together during the broadcast and a lot of communication. I show you from beginning to end the process of creating a cute finger puppet chick with eggshell, and you work with me at the same time. I answer all your questions and help you cope with the work as efficiently as possible.
I give very detailed instructions, so there is nothing to be afraid of. In addition, you will still get the record of the livestream.
The list of necessary materials and tools for this course is not so big, everything can be easily found. I describe everything in great detail in the PDF file that you receive right after payment, so that you have time to prepare before the course.
The chick in this course is a finger puppet. To make finger puppets, you don't need many materials and tools - the toy weighs 5 grams of wool only, and of the specific tools you need a ribbed mat from IKEA (or similar), as well as a needle felting needle. These tools must be prepared in advance, but the pleasure of felting is guaranteed! Believe me, I've been felting animals for 17 years, and still enjoy it.
In general, finger toys were originally the actors of the children's home theatre. Children adore them. But adults do not remain indifferent to this tiny sweetness. Most of my friends have similar crumbs in their pockets or desktops for a long time, everyone wants such a gift. After all, we are children inside and we love to play. Even when we play adult games, we need relaxation and good mood. And here these tiny creatures work their best - they make you smile! And you also smile while making them. Felting such toys is a complex art therapy - there is wool, hand work and wonderful animals. Total positive.
