Join us for this hands-on workshop to create a beautiful and functional basket, perfectly sized for bread, fruits, and veggies on your countertop. The Tray Basket features a lovely matchstick border with your choice of accent color. Use this basket anywhere around the house to display collections, hold guest towels, collect craft projects, and so on! 

This class is perfect for absolute beginners or anyone wanting to develop their basket weaving skills. 

Basket weaving is historically a very practical craft along the same traditions as pottery and woodworking. This craft is perfect for modern crafters though. It is functional, beautiful, and sustainable. By utilizing natural materials, you can create lovely pieces to use in a variety of ways around the home. 

Your finished basket will measure approximately 9” x 6” x 3.5” 

All materials and tools are provided.
