Mock up mess around to see what it would look like framed.
Do you think it works?
Should I pursue getting it printed?

I think this would look great rather large on a wall.

Maybe stop and admire the strong colours of this much overlooked tree/shrub. It grows in the most harsh terrain and yet gives an abundance of nectar. Single handedly helping to save both bees and butterflies. A true wild haven .

Had a great time learning a new skill with my daughter at a taster workshop by Nicola at Ola.Basketry.

It was well resourced with lots of options of prepared weaving items and a demonstration of how the basket starts off.

We learnt how they would change as they dried. I was surprised about using the rhubarb!

It was a really welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Once we had got past the tricky start it was a very pleasant and theraputic way to spend a few hours.

We were very pleased with our baskets and very happy to support the hard work of a very talented friend and artist/maker.

We would highly recommend anyone to give weaving a go with such a patient and kind teacher like Nicola.

My talented friend is running a workshop tomorrow Sat 9th August 2025
at St.Pauls Church in Letchworth.

A chance to make beautiful mini baskets.
Ideal for tweens, teens and galfriends to catch up whilst learning a new skill together.

I'm helping out and can't wait to learn how to use items foraged from my garden to make beautiful creations.

There's a few tickets left and consessions available.
