Willow Weaving Workshops

Creative crafting activities using sustainably produced willow.

I discovered the beautiful art of willow weaving around 2 years ago. I quickly got completely absorbed in it, and love teaching myself new designs and techniques, and even more, I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned with others.

There’s something really wonderful about working with natural willow – the earthy scent of damp wood always reminds me of peaceful forests, ferns, and mossy trails, and I can lose myself in it for hours!

I offer bespoke willow crafting workshops for friends, community groups and businesses across Worcestershire. Whether you’re an organisation looking to host an event at your own site, or you’d like to get a group of people together for a relaxed afternoon learning a new skill, I can help!

Testimonials

Jo delivered an awesome willow weaving workshop for one of our wild camping events and it went down a storm!

I’d never done this before and it was a tad more complicated than I thought it would be, but Jo explained it all so clearly that even a total novice could churn out a decent basket (that I still use!).

We’ve booked her to come back again and I’m looking forward to seeing what weird and wonderful willow creatures she gets us to make this time!

We did willow weaving on last years camp and I loved it. I’d not done it before and it probably wouldn’t have been something i would’ve even thought of doing.

It was great to get the chance, learning all about the willow, how to soak it, and how to weave it.

Definitely a great skill to have and I would definitely give it another go! 😊

Jo is a fantastic teacher – patient, encouraging, and able to guide even complete beginners through the process of weaving with confidence. I had the pleasure of learning from her on a camping trip, where she taught us how to weave baskets.

The experience was both relaxing and rewarding, and I was amazed at what I was able to create under her guidance.

If you’re looking to learn the art of willow weaving in a supportive and enjoyable environment, I highly recommend Jo.
