Join me in my studio in Whitwick for an intimate, hands-on workshop where you’ll create a one-of-a-kind rose lampshade using traditional wet-felting techniques and 3D felt flowers.

This is a small-group session, designed to give you plenty of individual guidance and space to work at your own pace. We’ll explore how felt behaves as both fabric and surface, building layers, texture, and form so your roses feel alive and expressive.

What we’ll cover

– Designing your lampshade: proportion, colour harmony, and light

– Creating felted roses with depth, movement, and character

– Wet-felting a elegant felt fabric suitable for lampshades

– Shaping, assembling, and finishing your roses lampshade

What you’ll leave with

A finished rose lampshade

A deeper understanding of 3D felt flowers and fibre surface design

Confidence to adapt the technique for future lampshades or textile projects

Who this workshop is for

Feltmakers who want to move beyond flat surfaces

Makers curious about combining function + sculptural detail

Anyone who enjoys slow making in a calm, supportive studio setting

All materials, tools, and refreshments are provided.
