Felting an ADORABLE "Little Guy" à la Rachel Maksy! 🦞

Let's make a "Little Guy" inspired by Rachel Maksy, our Patron Saint of Curs'd Crafts! I never thought I'd ever attempt to needle felt, but something about Rachel has inspired me to achieve my inner grandma and needle felt the most adorable little lobster that has ever walked on this earth! Seriously. Why are needle-felted critters so ding dang cute? In this video, I'll walk you step by step through my (slightly chaotic) process of first needle felting this lil' guy and then turning him into a hat. Because why make an adorable little guy just to sit on your mantle, when you could make him portable, so he can go with you wherever you do? 🙃 This is part of my Victorian "Lobster Gown" project, based on an 1883 fashion plate.
