As I used a lot of cupcakes within my visual
sheets I wanted to experiment making them with needle felting.
To create the cupcakes I first got a ball of
wool and needle felted it till it became firm, I then shaped it into the
wrapper of the cupcake and added line details. I then got a whisper of brown
wool and needle felted it became a firm sausage shape which I then added around
the wrapper shape to represent the cake part. It was then time to make the
frosting, to create this I got a ball of wool and needle felted it until it was
a firm ball shape which I then added it to the wrapper shape above the cake
part. Once it was attached I could shape it into the frosting, I then made a
ball of red wool which was then added to the top for the cherry topping.
I am so happy with the outcome of this as i wasn’t
sure what to expect and i feel it really looks like a cupcake, as it was
simple shapes it was so much easier to do then the teapot, this is only on a
small scale so when creating these for my final piece i will be doing them much
larger, i will also be using the colours used through my project to bring it
all together.
