Everlasting Willow Christmas  Wreath Making Class

The festive spirit will be alive and well at our Everlasting Willow Christmas Wreath class.
Wreaths are made with a white willow base, then different naturally coloured varieties are added. Natural fabric ribbons made from hessian, linen or jute are used together with raffia and Nutscene jute twine. The wreath then can be embellished with foliage and other natural materials - which if removed after the festive season allows for the willow part of the wreath to be used repeatedly, year-on-year.

Our Tutor
Linda Mills has been working with willow for 20 years since a first taster day at West Dean College in 2004. She creates wreaths, baskets and sculptures using some of the 350 varieties of willow. The ones used are grown in Somerset, Dorset and Hampshire.

Linda has been teaching workshops since 2013 when she first became a full-time basket maker.

Participant Information
Each workshop is limited to 10 participants.
​Whilst the workshop is inside the Great Green Barn, participants are advised to wear suitable warm clothes that you don’t mind getting grubby. Please wear closed shoes. Please bring your own secateurs, though other tools will be provided.

Refreshments
Teas, coffees and water are included in the ticket price.
Please let the Great Green Barn know if you have any special dietary requirements.
