Whether you're looking to learn a new felting technique, develop a creative idea, or take your skills to the next level, private sessions are tailored to your interests, experience, and creative goals.
Each session is planned in advance to ensure you get the most out of your time, with personalized guidance and instruction suited to your individual needs.
All private instruction is $40/hr + HST
Wet Felting
Hands-on wet-felting instruction requires a minimum booking of 5 hours to allow sufficient time for studio preparation, setup, and the felting process.
Needle Felting
Hands-on needle-felting instruction and demonstrations are available with a minimum booking of 1 hour, depending on the project.
Creative Consultations & Project Development
Have you seen something that inspires you but aren't quite sure where to begin?
Whether you're exploring a new technique, choosing materials, working through a design challenge, or wondering how to turn an idea into a finished piece, we can explore the possibilities together.
Bring your ideas, photographs, sketches, or works in progress, and we'll discuss techniques, construction methods, materials, and creative approaches to help bring your vision to life.
Consultations are discussion-based and do not include hands-on felting instruction.
Planning & Materials
Private instruction is customized to your learning goals. Standard lesson planning is included in the hourly rate.
More extensive curriculum development, research, or specialized preparation may incur an additional fee, which will always be discussed and agreed upon before booking.
All necessary tools and equipment are provided for hands-on instruction. Materials are charged separately unless otherwise specified.
Booking
Private instruction and creative consultations are available by special appointment. Please get in touch to discuss your interests, project ideas, and preferred dates so we can plan a session that makes the most of our time together.
