Leslie Granbeck
Add a warm glow to the coming winter season with a hand felted luminaria! Learn traditional wet felting techniques using wool, a little soapy water, and your hands. Using a variety of natural materials, students will be introduced to ways of adding color, texture, and other design embellishments to their work. You’ll make two luminarias in class, which are the perfect accent for the mantle, dinner table, or any spot that needs a little soft illumination.
Materials fee is $30, payable to the instructor at the time of class, and must be paid by cash or check only.

Instructor Bio:
An accomplished feltmaker, beader, and teacher for 20 years, Leslie Granbeck’s talents took a new direction when she discovered the technique of turning wool fibers into beads and jewelry. For Granbeck, feltmaking is magical, allowing her to turn simple wool fibers into beautiful scarves, purses, slippers, and garments. She teaches a variety of feltmaking techniques, and her classes are full of color, creativity, and adventure. (They also include a free workout as feltmaking is a “physical art.”) When not teaching, you’ll find her in the studio working on new fiber and bead projects. fiberenvy.net
