Blossom Energy

Workshop Description

Time for you to leave those busy schedules, weaving in some rest and joy instead! This mindful and creative workshop is open for adults. Improve on skills you've learnt earlier in the year or start afresh. Either way, I'll be on hand to help you create your very own beautiful giant flower. This day has been designed as a standalone course. You'll learn tried and tested ancient weaving skills—skills you'd use to make a traditional round stake-and-strand basket bottom. You can practise these skills at home and/or further develop them with me. Weaving skills you'll learn: pairing weave and how to make a slath. I'll teach you about the tools you'll need, where to buy, and how to select and soak willow. If you want to bring a friend, get them to book asap, as places are limited (maximum 8 participants). Use of tools and locally sourced willow is provided. Snacks and foraged herb teas throughout the day are included. Bring a packed lunch. Please bring sensible footwear and warm clothes as the barn is open-sided. A certain level of fitness is needed as the compost loo is a short walk away across two meadows. Keep an eye out for other Satori workshops that inspire you! Arrive from 8:30am for a prompt 9am start. We finish at approximately 4:30pm. Kindly be advised that participants arriving more than thirty minutes after the start of the workshop will be unable to join, as the class progresses at a unified pace, and restarting would compromise the available time.
