WEAVE A WILLOW BIRD AND BIRD FEEDER

Come join us for a delightful willow weaving workshop! This fun and friendly course is all about exploring your creativity with the wonderful Tamar as your guide. You’ll get to learn the techniques to make two lovely projects using sustainable willow.

In the morning, we’ll kick things off by weaving a charming little bird, and after lunch, we’ll dive into crafting a rustic birdfeeder with a wooden base. These beginner-friendly projects are not only enjoyable but also introduce you to skills you can use in other willow crafts down the road.
