🔨 Demonstration of the ancient craft of felting by master Svetlana Kamps!

Felting is a craft with a centuries-old history, conveying secrets and messages through wool products. Today, this ancient method is used to create jewelry, wall hangings, martenitsas, and many other unique items for the home.
