If you’ve ever wanted to make a willow basket but not known how to start, this lovely round basket is perfect! Created especially for beginners, whilst making this basket you will learn some traditional English techniques and use willow grown on the Somerset Levels


“When creating with willow, I am constantly enthused by how accessible to all this friendly natural material is; and that time and time again, I see how willow also weaves a sense of self belief into those who play …My belief is that anyone who plays with willow can create something that they are excited about and delighted with,” Sarah LeBreton.


Early booking advised – teaching is in small groups to allow for plenty of one-to-one tuition.
