Adult Make and Take Craft Kit: Soap Felting

Saturday, June 269:00 AM—5:00 PMInside, UpstairsNeedham Free Public Library1139 Highland Avenue, Needham, MA, 02494

Have fun soap felting in the Needham Library's 2nd Adult Take and Make Craft Kit! Make your own felted soap! Felted soap is simply a bar of soap wrapped in wool. This thin wool coat helps soap last longer, and makes slippery bars easier to hang on to. The wool is very gently exfoliating, and can replace a washcloth or bath pouf in the shower. Wool is also naturally antimicrobial, so there is no problem with keeping the bar in a wet shower environment.

Soap felting is easy to do using soap, wool roving, a panty hose, and hot water! 

Included in your kit will be:

  • 1 bar of soap
  • White wool roving
  • Colored wool roving
  • 1 knee-high panty hose
  • Instructions of how to make felted soap

All supplies needed will be included in the kit (except water!).  Participants can keep all supplies. 

Kits will be available to be picked up the week of June 21- 26 (beginning on Monday at 2 PM through Saturday at 5:00 PM) on the 2nd floor of the Library by the Reference desk. A follow up email will be sent to all participants with further instructions. 

For ages 18+. (Under 18? Check out our Kids and Tween/Teen Craft Kits!)

Email Sarah at sbreen@minlib.net with any questions! Happy Crafting!
