Willow Heart Workshop

In this fun and friendly workshop you will discover the art of willow weaving, learning the basic skills and techniques to craft a lovely decorative willow heart. Willow weaving uses natural and environmentally-friendly materials, and in this workshop we will use a variety of coloured willows harvested from the grounds at Quince Honey Farm.
You will find yourself immersed in the wonderful world of willow weaving and finish with a lovely willow heart to take home and hang up on the wall, in the garden, or (if you can bear to part with it) give it as a gift to someone special.  You are welcome to bring string or ribbon if you would like to decorate your willow heart further, the hearts will measure approx. 15 cm in length.
