King Winter

Winter. We just enjoyed snow and ice in the Netherlands. And 0 degrees camping in Israel. Time for a King Winter with a staff spreading snowflakes. Beautiful for on the season table, made this one for the antroposofic kindergarden.

Wool felted winter landscape

Slowly the winter is approaching. During the last workshop for parents at the antroposofic kindergarden I taught the parents the technique of wet felting. Each made a base made of wool for a season landscape. After making the base by wet felting I added details to my winter landscape by dry felting and added some beads with thread and needle. In the morning when my daugther woke up we enjoyed ourselves making up stories looking at the landscape.
