Hi everyone! In my last video I made three paintings and was giving one away! The winner of the painting is Mallorie Louann :) I’ll be doing a lot more giveaways during December! So stay tuned 😀
The bear 🐻 wall piece you have you can get it as a necklace same colour and design you can also get in other animals.i have a dog 🐕 necklace and my aunty has a bear 🐻 necklace.
Who else wants to see a video made of that adorable mini house craft kit? 👇 Let's get to it that she's sees this then as I am genuinely interested how that kit would go.
I’m thinking of buying one, so seeing her try it out first, would be great! Great first try at needle felting. It can get picky, but it’s also very relaxing imo.
Thank you so much for supporting small businesses. I own a shop on etsy and you have no idea the happy dance we all do when someone orders something, thank you!!
@@lucretiavelvet9755 To do the needle felting on so you don't poke yourself. Instead of holding it in her hand for the most part she should have done it on the block.
Chloe having art stuff in unsafe environments is a whole mood. Example A: The water bowl next to the extension cord Example B: Needle Felt creation ON A TOASTER-
Well... The water will only damage the extension cord if it gets into the electrical part and most likely, nothing dangerous will happen, it might even be salvageable depending on the quality of the cord, how quick she acts on drying it off and how much water gets in/how sensitive the drenched parts are And the toaster isn't on/in use, so there's really nothing unsafe about putting the felt creation there for a quick shot
The miniature house kits are a blast, but DON'T expect them to be quick. They are extremely fiddly. However, you could definitely get multiple videos out of it. I've just watched the needle felting bit, and... Oh. No. That foam block? You should rest the thing you're felting on it and poke down into it (after removing all the needles), NOT your hand. Ow.
I definitely wanna see the room kit built! I have begun to realize I generally like "putting things together" as my creative outlet and I didn't even know something like that existed!
I really love the dollhouse kits! I spent much of April working on 3 different ones (most of them took about 2-4 days to do, give or take depending on how comfortable you are with working on a really really small scale!) be aware: a small ruler, fabritac glue, and an exacto-knife (probably misspelled) are LIFESAVERS. When using the exacto-knife, be sure to use a cutting board or something underneath so you do not damage your table!
To be fair I had no idea! I thought they had a range of different creatures on Etsy and Shiba Inu was what the felt creatures were called. I’m new to it and this culture of craft and everything else was in a foreign language haha
As a needle felter, Chloe felting right on the surface of the table HURTS MY SOUL! Plus most of your work is sooooooo underfelted, good first attempt though!
As a past needle felting tutor I cringed several times but for a first attempt she's actually a natural at it and managed to complete a very complicated kit.
It took me eight minutes to stop being confused why you'd be interested in carving soap in 'stone' form because in German, it's called Speckstein which is literally translated to 'bacon stone'... Guess I learned a new English word today :'D But the bear is cute! Needle feelting is fun! I think there are tools which allow you to use three needles at the same time, might be quicker :) The little one is still cute!
filzen wurde mir ständig im kindergarten unter die nase geschoben und in der schule IN DER BERUFSSCHULE auch...seit dem habe ich filzen immer gehasst. aber jemandem dabei zu zugucken is dennoch interesting haha
Edit about the felting kit: I actually really love felting, in the future you should felt until you can’t see the lines of the wool anymore if that makes sense, it should all be dense so you can’t pull it apart. But he still turned out really cute, especially for your first attempt at felting I’d love to see a part two to this, Amigurumi would be a fun one to try if you got a small kit, some can take less time than the bear. Or maybe trying a cross-stitch or embroidery kit would be fun
1:22 One class in art school had me carving soap stone. I was stuck using hand files while my classmate had a Dremel. When I joked that she was cheating she said not really because it kept overheating and needed a half hour to cool off every time. We didn't have a pre-cut shape though, we just chose from a box of rocks. Our stone was a dark green color like green marble.
I would love to see you build the tiny house! I love watching other people build things like that and I think it would be so fun watching my favorite TH-camr do it! Love your videos😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love the small business supporting vibe - someone in New Zealand created a small business Facebook group and it’s now got 543,000 members (which is about a 10th of our entire population 😮)
I had a really terrible day at work, and that evening my crafting group had arranged for a needle felting class. It was so well timed!! I stabbed at some wool (fairly emphatically) and made an elephant. Needle felting is an *awesome* craft for letting off steam. It's also pretty fun when you just feel like being crafty. :)
I love needle felting! I do it in my free time, but can also use it while I’m working as an art therapist. When you poke with the needle, the little hooks pull the wool through the other wool and create little knots, that way it stays together and you can create a little figure 😊
I was mentally screaming when she was doing the needle felting and then when she stabbed herself I was like omg!! Look at cute life hacks or maqaroon if you want to know more about needle felting.
The directions didn’t show the foam block in the pictures! (Unless I totally missed that) a lot of people have mentioned I should use the foam next time so I would, sometimes I learn from my comments more than instructions!
@@ChloeRoseArt It's okay, I saw those instructions in another video and they REALLY don't do the best job at explaining every step of the process. It's not that begginer friendly as it could be, so a part of the fault does fall into how the instruction were made.
“I thought the fact that I haven’t gone in to any store for months would save me a lot of money, ....however. The internet exists.” Mood. I’ve picked up so many new crafts and crafts I haven’t done in a decade or more the past few months. I think my husband is going a bit insane because I keep ordering more stuff and our house is bursting with crafting supplies already (because I never throw anything away). I’m also driving my kid crazy because I keep trying to force him to do crafts with me when he’s really not an arts person. It’s starting to be a problem. But I don’t wanna stop.
@@caroleberreur9585 Oh, I’ve trained my kid to go get the packages from the door so that I don’t have to get up from my current crafting obsession and break my concentration. XD
@@Annie_Annie__ “Trained my kid”!?! He’s not a dog OR a baby goat!🤦♀️😂Anywho, why SHOULD you have to quit!?! It’s not like you’re harming anyone in the process! You do you, lil lady!! Enjoy it as much as you wish!!!🤜🤛🤝👌
I feel this- my "Covid Craft" was actually one of the Robolife miniature kits that she showed at the beginning, and ooooh boy did I go on a spree buying new kits- I have more unopened than finished at this point. Also picked up sewing, so yeah- that one was a supply buying rabbithole I never thought I'd get sucked into, but here we are hahaha
Yes I’ve done dry felting (the technique to make the shiba inu). Next time sit it on the foam block whilst ‘poking’ it to make it less likely that you poke yourself. If you look closely you’ll see the needles are serrated which is what teases the wool together into felt. The longer you poke it for the smaller and denser the body and areas of wool will become and you can get a more defined shape. Honestly yours is super cute. I already have all the stuff out of the second kit but would love to make something as cute as this little dog, you’ve inspired me to get my dry felting stuff back out and learn to make something a little more complex and cute!
Also you can buy multi-needles that are a bunch of needles all in together which are great to speed up doing a large area but I think doing something that small I’d have stuck to a single or double anyway.
He's super cute, you did an amazing job for your first try, on both projects to be honest. They both turned out great! I'm sure it's already been said but the styrofoam square is so you can poke against something that isn't your hands. Just in case you get into needle felting. Not that I've ever tried it myself... I just want to some day and am super into the tutorials.
Please do more kits! This video and you randomly popped up on my feed. I throughly enjoyed the eyeball troubles 😆 and watching you make these crafts by supporting small business.
I've done this before and I made a worm that looked like Shelby from adventure time. It's very relaxing but I had a foam block to put it on that made it easier for me to Not stab myself.
Needle felting is sooo fun! I never get the kits, but I have a lot of supplies and probably too much felt- either way, one of my favorite ways to pass the time.
I know people always say this, but my first needle felted project looked like a pink and green pile of poop, so you should be so proud of this being your first project. It's freaking amazing. Just one tip, though: the reason the dog's body looks slightly lumpy is because you probably were working it too much. When you poke it too much, the felt will get clumped together and get bumpy and hard in some spots. It's a hard line to walk, but the key is definitely to try to keep it from being too over-poked. Otherwise it'll get the effect you had, where it looked bumpy. Again, though, your dog looks so absolutely adorable. (If you're wondering what my first needle felting project was, you probably weren't, but just in case, I was trying to make a watermelon with a face. Sounds easy, but I promise, it was not. )🍉🍉🍉
I had a felting phase and I made a whole bunch of felted birds for my grandmother’s Christmas tree (per her request). The white foam that the needles came in is meant to be the surface you felt on to avoid stabbing yourself or breaking the needle.
I'm actually in the early stages of stting up my etsy business selling art and craft kits so this video is really cool to watch- love supporting small businesses 🥰
"Poke poke poke please don't poke my finger that would hurt" Continues to poke herself multiple times- I feel for you Chloe I've done that multiple times
As a person who does needle felting and works with fibers , I loved it. One little tip the the styrofoam is there to cushion s you dont stab your hands. You place the wool roving on to the styrofoam lock and you roll it into the shape neeeded and stab away into the styrofoam, not into your hands lol.
I love to needle felt (the wool craft) and have been doing so for a few years on and off. Definitely use that foam block it came with to set your project on so the needles don't hit the table. Broken needles are no fun. You also want the wool to be rather tight. What you grab should become fairly small once its been properly, well, stabbed, into shape. You should be able to get a smooth shape that doesn't squish too much when you press on it. All said, you did pretty great on your first one! You can even find tools online that hold multiple needles at once. If you ever try it out again, I suggest getting some core wool. It's usually inferior colorless wool (feels like stuffing, but in a sheet/roll form) that many people use to get their base shape so they don't have to waste their more expensive colored wool. And it kind of forms better than the silky colored ones.
haha i was needle felting while watching this :P i got into it recently because im using it for my Stop motion Charcters Modle. i really enjoyed u doing that kit. it look good i might save up for it :) Love your videos Chloe !
Wow, way to go on getting outside your comfort zone! The soapstone bear was interesting..... I've never seen kits for those before.... I need to check those out. The bear/fox/Shiba Inu was interesting too. I've never done needle felting but it looks like fun. Even though yours didn't turn out to be a carbon copy of the picture on the package, it still looked good, doubly so since you've never done anything like that before.
Chloe Rose, the spongy thing that came in the felting kit can be used to save your fingers/hand by using like a little squishy table instead of holding it. ;)
I’d love to see a video on the Miniature house kit! I would also like to thank you for keeping me company during this pandemic, I’ve been binge watching your videos on repeat 😅
Oh, the carving wood kit looks awesome, I would love to have if I had any money for it. Also, as someone into needle felting, the thing after the bear, seeing her just try to work the wool on the table instead of the sponge thingy was so painful. That is how you break your needles or leave marks on your table. The thing about needle felting is that you have to be very patient about it and spend a lot of time to make it right. My tip for anyone interested on it: if you can grab a thimble made of leather or silicon to protect your fingers, do, because you are going to stab yourself, just accept it. Work on top of a sponge, but be careful not to felt your work into it by turning it around. Work in simple shapes and the details alway with the thinnest needle you have so there isn't any holes on the surfice. Never just grab it on your hand like that to work with the needle unless you are doing something very specific, and on that case you have to go slow and patiently working. If for whatever reason the needles are too much for you, try wet felting! It's basically this, but you work with just water and soap to make what you want and then with the needle can add details in the end. It's a really fun activity that you could potentially do with children too.
I started watching as quickly as I could, does it really matter to be within the first hour? Well I have seen the home made kits before, I believe you did a wonderful job with this! I will mention “Bentley House Mini’s” if you want a place to go check out mini construction! You should make the house and create several videos from the kit! I am looking forward to watching you create even more videos from kits!
You did really well for your first attempt at needle felting! ❤️ If you try it again, try making the small bits like the ears separate. Use your little foam slab to work from. It’ll save you fingers from being stabbed and will keep the small bits pretty still. 🙂
I've done two of those house kits, and a couple tips: get a super glue, get a tweezers or even one of those model tool kits, and clear your schedule for about 30 hours
I love that Tomato Strawbeary Hybrid fox Aseops fable bear thing. Very cute even went on etsy to check out the kits, thank you. You accidentally showed me better ink calligraphy kits more affordable than Jazza too. His are backordered til next year. Been a rather fun night!
Some pro tips if you decide to make the mini kitchen!! I’ve made a bunch of these and I love the hobby, but it takes forever to make them! I definitely suggest using an exacto knife for everything and super glue gel will be your very best friend, along with a variety of tweezers. I hope you have fun with it!
18:45 that reveal music had me rolling, too funny! I think his eyes were popping out because you didn't make him as dense as they wanted, still turned out lovely though!
Thanks for doing this video. I had no idea this kind of thing was on Etsy. I'll be visiting this carving kit shop for Christmas gifts! This is a perfect craft for my ASD, sensory, dexterity son. Our whole family loves your videos and your art. Keep making people smile!
Needle felting is so relaxing! You just get to stab stuff over and over again, lol. I got a kit for Christmas years ago and made it my go-to stress relief craft.
As a felter and frequent stabber of my own fingers, I absolutely felt that. Next time use the foam block they give you as a stabbing surface then your fingers are safe! Lovely first attempt! Its very hard to get anything nice first time from felting, the learning curve is vertical 🐻
Chole would you try pour art? I have been doing it for a while and I'm thinking of selling some of them on Etsy and whatnot lol but I think that would be cool if you tried pour art though you do have to get a few things for it lol
Ok, I'm definitely getting some soapstone kits off etsy because that's next on my list of stuff I haven't done yet but have always wanted to try, and now I'm convinced it can't be any harder than carving wood blocks and I did that fine. I found a different company that has a much wider selection of animals and larger size final carvings for the same price plus they send a double ended curved rasp so you can carve curves as well as flat areas. They also sell bulk stone and separate tools if you don't want to buy a kit.
That's actually a very ambitious needle felting project to start with. I think my first one was a derpy dachshund with 2 colors max and almost no details. You did great with it honestly!
I'd love to see a video of you making the miniature house kit. I watch The Square to Spare, who does quite a few amazing ones. I enjoy the builds so much so, that when a local Hobby Lobby had some for sale, my wife and I both chose one to build.

Just one tip, though: the reason the dog's body looks slightly lumpy is because you probably were working it too much. When you poke it too much, the felt will get clumped together and get bumpy and hard in some spots. It's a hard line to walk, but the key is definitely to try to keep it from being too over-poked. Otherwise it'll get the effect you had, where it looked bumpy.
Again, though, your dog looks so absolutely adorable.
(If you're wondering what my first needle felting project was, you probably weren't, but just in case, I was trying to make a watermelon with a face. Sounds easy, but I promise, it was not. )🍉🍉🍉
I've never needle-felted, but a wedge shape does actually sound trickier than it looks!
I had a felting phase and I made a whole bunch of felted birds for my grandmother’s Christmas tree (per her request). The white foam that the needles came in is meant to be the surface you felt on to avoid stabbing yourself or breaking the needle.
On the topic of the colour of the soap stone bear, I’m fairly sure that soap stone has different colour variations.
I'm actually in the early stages of stting up my etsy business selling art and craft kits so this video is really cool to watch- love supporting small businesses 🥰
I’ve done needle felting(yes,that’s what it’s called)it takes a little while if you do a big project but they are quite fun to do
My friends mom loves anything to do with felt. So ever since I was 4, we used to always do these kinds of things and make little animals or flowers!
"Poke poke poke please don't poke my finger that would hurt"
Continues to poke herself multiple times-
I feel for you Chloe I've done that multiple times
I love the strawberry dog! He's adorable. Your bear had better definition than the example one! Bravo
it seems that you have purchased... just the.... BEAR necessities!
The bear carving was so cute! They make like a thing with 10 needles that speed that up and pack the felt in so it is smoother, hope that helps!

Literally No one:
Not even a soul:
Chloe: You know those Tik toks where they cheese grate peoples feet?
They’re so gross 🤢
@@ChloeRoseArt Thanks for replying lol 😂 love your videosss
Your little bear is adorable! You did a good job on the soapstone bear. Thanks for sharing.
The *ONE* thing you should know about Chloe:
_Shes hates directions_
As a person who does needle felting and works with fibers , I loved it. One little tip the the styrofoam is there to cushion s you dont stab your hands. You place the wool roving on to the styrofoam lock and you roll it into the shape neeeded and stab away into the styrofoam, not into your hands lol.
ChIoe: " I mean he's fine, he doesn't need a bath."
Lol😂
I love to needle felt (the wool craft) and have been doing so for a few years on and off. Definitely use that foam block it came with to set your project on so the needles don't hit the table. Broken needles are no fun.
You also want the wool to be rather tight. What you grab should become fairly small once its been properly, well, stabbed, into shape. You should be able to get a smooth shape that doesn't squish too much when you press on it.
All said, you did pretty great on your first one! You can even find tools online that hold multiple needles at once. If you ever try it out again, I suggest getting some core wool. It's usually inferior colorless wool (feels like stuffing, but in a sheet/roll form) that many people use to get their base shape so they don't have to waste their more expensive colored wool. And it kind of forms better than the silky colored ones.
CHLOE QUOTES:
“His bloody eyeball has fallen out”😂😂
“He chunky”
“I’m gonna make it appear he’s sitting when he is not”
Yes. I would love to see a video of making the mini house
haha i was needle felting while watching this :P i got into it recently because im using it for my Stop motion Charcters Modle. i really enjoyed u doing that kit. it look good i might save up for it :) Love your videos Chloe !
Wow, way to go on getting outside your comfort zone! The soapstone bear was interesting..... I've never seen kits for those before.... I need to check those out. The bear/fox/Shiba Inu was interesting too. I've never done needle felting but it looks like fun. Even though yours didn't turn out to be a carbon copy of the picture on the package, it still looked good, doubly so since you've never done anything like that before.
Oh.
Oh no.
I really needed to not know there were craft kits on etsy.
This is not good. This is going to get expensive.
Those exact needle felting kits can be found on aliexpress for like a dollar, I bought a bunch of different ones
@@aerynea At least on Etsy you are supporting real artists, not Chinese sweat shops.
@@jenewok no, they are the EXACT same, these Etsy shops are just resellers
The fact all 3 of you coincidentally have cute animals as your profile pics is pure magic.
Im literally looking at a cat, shiba inu, & sloth engage.
Aha fellow animal pfp 😎
Chloe Rose, the spongy thing that came in the felting kit can be used to save your fingers/hand by using like a little squishy table instead of holding it. ;)
The fact she has a bowl of water next to an extension is kinda scaring me
I’d love to see a video on the Miniature house kit!
I would also like to thank you for keeping me company during this pandemic, I’ve been binge watching your videos on repeat 😅
“yes i have a plant! i was watering it. i haven’t killed it...”
**pauses**
“ _yet..._ ”
Oh, the carving wood kit looks awesome, I would love to have if I had any money for it.
Also, as someone into needle felting, the thing after the bear, seeing her just try to work the wool on the table instead of the sponge thingy was so painful. That is how you break your needles or leave marks on your table.
The thing about needle felting is that you have to be very patient about it and spend a lot of time to make it right. My tip for anyone interested on it: if you can grab a thimble made of leather or silicon to protect your fingers, do, because you are going to stab yourself, just accept it. Work on top of a sponge, but be careful not to felt your work into it by turning it around. Work in simple shapes and the details alway with the thinnest needle you have so there isn't any holes on the surfice. Never just grab it on your hand like that to work with the needle unless you are doing something very specific, and on that case you have to go slow and patiently working.
If for whatever reason the needles are too much for you, try wet felting! It's basically this, but you work with just water and soap to make what you want and then with the needle can add details in the end. It's a really fun activity that you could potentially do with children too.
I'm one hundred years old I know when I'm not welcome :(
Would you feel like a rule breaker if you were 102 and using that?
The listing on etsy says 99+.
I love stone carving and felting. Both really relaxing.
I started watching as quickly as I could, does it really matter to be within the first hour? Well I have seen the home made kits before, I believe you did a wonderful job with this! I will mention “Bentley House Mini’s” if you want a place to go check out mini construction! You should make the house and create several videos from the kit! I am looking forward to watching you create even more videos from kits!
You did really well for your first attempt at needle felting! ❤️
If you try it again, try making the small bits like the ears separate. Use your little foam slab to work from. It’ll save you fingers from being stabbed and will keep the small bits pretty still. 🙂
I actually didnt notice your stained table I literally thought it was grey and blue marble 😂
I've done two of those house kits, and a couple tips: get a super glue, get a tweezers or even one of those model tool kits, and clear your schedule for about 30 hours
I would love to see the minature house
I loved how the bear turned out, and I've been wanting to try needle felting for quite a while now
Chloe- Let's read the instructions I'm getting confused
*reads instructions*
Chloe-
*confused more than before but still creates amazing artworks *
I love that Tomato Strawbeary Hybrid fox Aseops fable bear thing. Very cute even went on etsy to check out the kits, thank you.
You accidentally showed me better ink calligraphy kits more affordable than Jazza too. His are backordered til next year. Been a rather fun night!
‘And again, I didn’t need this’
So relatable lol 😂
Some pro tips if you decide to make the mini kitchen!!
I’ve made a bunch of these and I love the hobby, but it takes forever to make them!
I definitely suggest using an exacto knife for everything and super glue gel will be your very best friend, along with a variety of tweezers.
I hope you have fun with it!
Got a bit distracted bc chloe’s eyeshadow is done so prettily
Yes! I was hoping someone had commented on how pretty her shadow is!
18:45 that reveal music had me rolling, too funny! I think his eyes were popping out because you didn't make him as dense as they wanted, still turned out lovely though!
Do the house! DO THE HOUSE! *she says slowly putting her hand down and lowering her voice!
Thanks for doing this video. I had no idea this kind of thing was on Etsy. I'll be visiting this carving kit shop for Christmas gifts! This is a perfect craft for my ASD, sensory, dexterity son.
Our whole family loves your videos and your art. Keep making people smile!
Another title: Chloe stabbing herself, and giving us a tour of her house.
I recognise your pfp! Isn't it from a drawingwiffwaffles video??
@@sangshri24 yep!
Needle felting is so relaxing! You just get to stab stuff over and over again, lol. I got a kit for Christmas years ago and made it my go-to stress relief craft.
Chloe: We're just going to put that down to me being an amateur
Me: If you're an amateur, then what am I???? negative amateur...?
As a felter and frequent stabber of my own fingers, I absolutely felt that. Next time use the foam block they give you as a stabbing surface then your fingers are safe!
Lovely first attempt! Its very hard to get anything nice first time from felting, the learning curve is vertical 🐻
Or a wash cloth as you americans call it.
2 minutes later:
Its kind of like MOWING THE LAWN
OMG! The fox is soooo cute! He just needs the little white bit in his ears and a fluffy tail ❤️
Chole would you try pour art? I have been doing it for a while and I'm thinking of selling some of them on Etsy and whatnot lol but I think that would be cool if you tried pour art though you do have to get a few things for it lol
Hi
Ok, I'm definitely getting some soapstone kits off etsy because that's next on my list of stuff I haven't done yet but have always wanted to try, and now I'm convinced it can't be any harder than carving wood blocks and I did that fine. I found a different company that has a much wider selection of animals and larger size final carvings for the same price plus they send a double ended curved rasp so you can carve curves as well as flat areas. They also sell bulk stone and separate tools if you don't want to buy a kit.
I got one of miniature house kits for Christmas last year and I am too intimidated by how complicated it looks.
That's actually a very ambitious needle felting project to start with. I think my first one was a derpy dachshund with 2 colors max and almost no details. You did great with it honestly!
chloe: this the bear soap carving kit-
me: *cHoCoLaTe???*
Ooh! I've made three of those house kits (including the one you showed!) Super fun but takes patience. I'd love to see you build it.

I'd love to see a video of you making the miniature house kit. I watch The Square to Spare, who does quite a few amazing ones. I enjoy the builds so much so, that when a local Hobby Lobby had some for sale, my wife and I both chose one to build.
Wow I'm super early! Ik you wont probably see this Chloe, but we really appreciate you and all that you do for us! Stay amazing, queen👑💖
Hey you did awesome for your first go with needle felting. I have been doing it since 2007. For your first project your little dog turned out great
