Willow Christmas Tree with Sarah Gardner (27 Nov) | Phoenix Art Space

Details

Learn how to create your own Christmas tree made from willow at the Willow Christmas Tree workshop with Sarah Gardner. Using basketry techniques, participants will be guided through the process of setting the main stakes and forming the shape of the tree structure using a rope weave. This hands-on workshop is not only a perfect way to get into the festive spirit, but also a therapeutic and enjoyable experience. Plus, you'll have the opportunity to decorate your home with your own handmade creations. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience in basketry, this course is suitable for all levels. All materials and tools will be provided, so you can focus on unleashing your creativity. Sarah Gardner, a textile designer and basketry practitioner with 7 years of experience, will be leading the workshop. Her passion for constructed textiles and love for natural materials shines through in her work. Sarah's make-do-and-mend approach allows her to incorporate both natural and man-made materials into her basket-making, resulting in unique and innovative pieces. In addition to the Willow Christmas Tree workshop, Sarah is also offering two other workshops on Christmas Tree Decorations and Star on December 4th and 5th. Join Sarah on November 27th at the Red Room in Brighton's Phoenix Art Space for a memorable evening of crafts and creativity. Spaces are limited to ensure a personalized experience, so be sure to book your spot early. The cost for the workshop is £45, and the session will run from 18:00 to 21:00. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from a skilled artisan and add a touch of handmade charm to your Christmas decor.
