Get in the festive spirit with this special edition Willow Christmas Decoration Workshop!

In this 3-hour workshop, you will learn how to create three different willow Christmas decorations, all suitable for hanging on a Christmas tree or around your home.

These decorations will be made from buff willow rods, that is willow that has had the bark stripped off the rod leaving the willow a straw like colour. This is a lovely natural material and the workshop will show you how extremely versatile this sustainable material is!

You will make three different decorations designs each using different willow weaving techniques.

• A simple 5 pointed star, which enables you to practice bending the willow to create the star shape.
• A Swedish star which involves a wearing technique of threading willow rods over and under each other to create a large attractive star.
• A woven spiral that involves the twisting and folding over of willow rods to form an attractive spiral shape.

At the end of the workshop, you will have a selection of handmade Christmas decorations to take home.

All material and tools provided.
