Needle and felted soap tutorial

Here's a video I have put together for anyone who wants to make felted soap. The first video is how to needle felt your design onto the soap and then I show you how to felt the soap in the second video. Felted soaps make great Christmas gifts and you can find some amazing handmade soaps on Artfire that you can use to felt. Check out these shops for some awesome handmade soaps. 
Don't want to make your own felted soap just go to Artfire or Etsy and type in felted soap in the search bar to find some amazing soaps.

To do my tutorial I used a bar of Emu Oil soap but you can use any kind of soap. Check out the shops above for some handmade soaps that smell great. I have personally bought from three of these shops and was super happy with my products!



























When you are finished felting your soap place it on a towel to dry before using.
