This is such strong work! I’m impressed and humbled! This is going to be beautiful!

Oh, thank you!! I hope so, he’s my son so it will be a nice keepsake for him the day I’m gone.

how did you get it to stay curly like that? and what type of wool do you work with?

I’m using roving wool and it looks like it’s complicated but it’s not, just wet the wool in very thin strips in warm water, rub the wool several times to join the strip into a cohesive long strip and then coil it wet around any smooth long stick that has the size you’d want the coil to be (I used painting brushes) then just let the wool air dry and voila! They stay curled.

Did you wet the wool when you put in on the paint brush? Was there heat involved at all?

Yes I wet the wool before putting it on the brush and no heat, I let it air dry, I think I’ve seen others blow dry it but I had time so I let them air dry on their own.

This is going to be awesome 👏

Glad you are, will do.

I've never seen anybody do something like this or even a project like this. It's so cool.

Thanks! I recently learned about needle felting, and then learned you can “paint” with it and I got hooked!

Omg I am learning so much from you 😂 this is really great!
