Hand Woven Lanterns

Join me on a delightful journey into random weave as we create woven lanterns using random weave to create stunning tables pieces for the most fabulous of Christmas events - and beyond.                                                                                                                                                  No experience required for this delicious opportunity to pause and connect into your creative self and take home a beautiful sculptural piece made by your own hands. 

You'll learn: 

- how to use random weave to create stunning sculptural forms using Bangalow Palm inflorescences                                                                    - where and how to forage and prepare the pieces for weaving                                                                                                                           - how to preserve your work using natural fibres for prosperity 

Included:-all materials - foraged and prepared bangalow palm inflorescences for weaving your organic vessel.

I'm delighted to be collaborating with the fabulous team at Lil Piggy cafe in Mittagong who will provide a delicious morning tea platter upon arrival readying you for exploring the gentle art of weaving as you create your lantern(s).

(And Lil Piggy is fully licensed so if you fancy that tipple as you weave, you are so welcome to purchase your own delight.)

What to bring: 

- a vase that you will weave around - I recommend glass - between 6cm and 30cm diameter - 20- 25cm is best.

Here's what people are saying:-   

"Fantastic experience. I loved the chance to work with my hands and it reminds me I need to do it more often!!"

I'd love to work with you, 

Big love, Sarah
