【Brand Introduction】Mao Qi Lai Wan
【Brand Image】
Using wool felt as a medium, we emphasize the warmth of handmade creations. We value human connection and explore different ways of communication through the creative process. Our style is delicate, crafting countless animals through meticulous needlework, aiming to capture the softest parts of people's hearts with wool felt.
【Teaching Philosophy】
We believe communication takes many forms: speaking is one, singing is another, body language is one, and art is also one. Through the medium of wool felt and the process of crafting together, we can understand and accompany each other. In this era of fast-paced, cold, and distant information, we remind everyone to slow down, look inward, rediscover themselves, and feel the warmth of handmade creations.
