If you're drawn to adorable knick knacks, needle felting may be the craft for you in the new year—and three supplies, wool, a barbed needle, and a felting surface (to avoid poking your fingers), are all it takes to get started. The process of sculpting wool into 3D objects, needle felting has been recently popularized on social media as a way to create woodland animals. "At first, you might be wary of poking a needle into wool, but you can't deny how satisfying and therapeutic it can be," says Jessie Chui, mixed media artist and owner of Crafted to Bloom.

If you're like us, you've been seeing resin everywhere. Resin art is accomplished when a liquid polymer, epoxy, is mixed with various color pigments to create beautiful patterns and textures. Although it's been around for years, resin art was recently popularized on TikTok and currently has more than 18 billion views on the platform. It's used to fill in molds to make jewelry, coasters, and ornaments, as well as to transform wooden furniture into unique pieces of art.
