Learn how to felt soap! This video was made for the Redding Method Facebook Groups, Teach it Tuesday Tutorials. I am very honored to share my craft with you!
What I really loved about this tutorial is that you made it all so simple, not complicated. You are a natural teacher! So often other teachers are too "you-will-never-be-as-good-as-me" but you!.... You made me feel like I was there with you enjoying the experience and feeling like this was really something I could do too with confidence and contentment! Thank you SO much for sharing this with us.... best wishes from a fan in Ireland
Very informative and thorough.....all the questions I had in my mind were brought up through out this tutorial. Thank you for your patience and guidance.
Love your craft, thank you for sharing. One question please, if the soap had been coloured with mica will the colour come through the wool, that is, if the soap has browns, greens ... do colours, should the wool colour chosen be dark base?
Great tutorial. What type of soap is best to use? If you make your own soap do you make a hard bar, do some oils go mushy, and shroud you let it cure fully before felting? I’d love to try this but want to make the right ‘type’ of soap for it 😀
Hi! You could try, I think it would work! It might be a little thick and take a little longer when your rubbing it, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work! You can also use tulle if you have that available, too.
I use nylons because they are reusable and I like how they hold the soap and wool together tightly in the beginning. You can also use tulle. I have never tried cling wrap, I would imagine i would be difficult and sticky, probably more hassle than it's worth.
Sara Setzer I found your tutorial very informative and I like the way you explained everything! And I have just successfully felted my first soap. Thank you 🙏

Love your craft, thank you for sharing.

Amazing info! Thank you!
If you collect all the small soaps that have been used, do you do something with the little felt bits left ?
Great tutorial. What type of soap is best to use? If you make your own soap do you make a hard bar, do some oils go mushy, and shroud you let it cure fully before felting? I’d love to try this but want to make the right ‘type’ of soap for it 😀
Very good video ..I use the different shapes. I like how you draft the roving? Thank You .
Lori Seaton thank you, I appreciate that very much! Happy felting!
Do you make your own soap? Or where can you get round soap? Great job on this tutorial!
Love chrochet
Wow i love this! Do you sell them? Can you do a video doing the patterns on the soap?
I do! I sell them on my website at www.sarasetzerfeltworks.com. I have more videos in the works, I'll see what I can come up with :)
Can I do this with my 1sts or 2nds that have not gone to the mill?
Hi Annette! I think you could depending on the fiber of course. It might take a little more time to lay it out but it should work for you!
Where did you get the wool
If we don't have nylons can we just use a regular sock?
Hi! You could try, I think it would work! It might be a little thick and take a little longer when your rubbing it, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work! You can also use tulle if you have that available, too.
Why do you use nylons and can you use cling wrap instead?
I use nylons because they are reusable and I like how they hold the soap and wool together tightly in the beginning. You can also use tulle. I have never tried cling wrap, I would imagine i would be difficult and sticky, probably more hassle than it's worth.
Also where do you buy the felt from?
Try Outback Fibers or NunoFelting.com, both great sources!
Hope long does it take them to dry usually?
Not very long, a couple hours maybe.
wow
felted
Pretty lady.
Seems too labor intensive to be cost effective if you are in the business of selling the soap. What do they sell for?
I've seen them for 8 to 15. Cdn. Depending if it had a needle felted design.
I'm from Canada and it's $8 without felt and $18 with felt

Too slow of a teacher.
I find it's helpful to be thorough for beginners :)
