18th & 19th October 2024.

Farnham, Surrey

Enjoy two days creating your own willow basket with expert willow weaver Judith Needham.

Over the two days you will make a decent-sized basket whether that be a wastepaper basket, shopper, fruit bowl or small log basket, the choice is yours.

You will be using the stake-and-strand method with a circular English base and you will be able to choose a border style and add a handle if you wish.

There are lots of different stages to making a basket so, over the two days, you will be learning new things all the time. Making your first basket will be a really rewarding experience and you’ll find that baskets look so different when you have a real understanding of how they are put together. You will get huge satisfaction from starting with such a basic raw material and finishing up with a strong, useful and beautiful product.

10am to 4pm, £150. For more information and to book visit Farnham Maltings
