Join us for this hands-on workshop to create a beautiful and functional basket. Use this basket anywhere around the house to display collections, hold magazines, collect craft projects, and so on. It is really a striking beauty with an intricate braided handle!

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 8 x 6 x 5 inches plus handle.

All materials and tools are provided.
