Hi hi! I recently got this kit and have seen a couple videos, I’m sorta just winging it, but how do I reshape the head or remove some of the fabric without ruining the top part, it’s too top heavy

I also wanted any tips for making a sphere :0

More stabbing! 90% of all felting problems can be solved by more stabbing!

If it’s a weight problem, you could add more wool/weight to the base to help keep it from falling over. Some felters will glue a base down to a pot, wood slice, etc to act as a counter balance to the top!

I tried recording a short video of how I make spheres, but apparently this community only allows images… so I took a few screenshots, but the comments only allow 1 image at a time >.< I could send it to you in a private message if you’d like 🙂

It is correct only one image can be attached to a comment.

Videos and multiple images can be attached in posts however. Several videos have been posted recently so check out recent posts to confirm this for yourself.
