See below for information on the Second Annual Christmas Workshop.  What a great way to make something special to give as a Christmas gift or for yourself! 

Directions to my studio are given below.

Second Annual Christmas Workshop – Sat. December 9 @ 9 am

Choose one or two of the following four baskets:

Rolling Pin Kitchen Baskets – $16.00 each

They each have a mini rolling pin as a handle!  The taller one (4” X 4” X 7”) is great for utensils.  The shorter one (9” X 3 ½” X 4”) can hold recipe cards, potholders, condiments, or napkins.  You will have several color choices.

Cracker Basket - $20.00

Everyone can use a cracker basket!  The base of this one measures 11 ½” X 3” and the basket is 3 ¼” high.  Rich looking stoneware handles are placed at each end.  You will have color choices for the weaving and the handles.  You may use your own cloth liner or purchase one of ours.

Christmas Card Basket - $24.00

Base is 7” X 2 ½” and the basket is 6 ½” tall.  A small oak bushel handle is woven to the back.  You may choose a Santa or a Stocking to weave onto the front.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bring snacks, drinks, or a sandwich.  I have a refrigerator and a microwave in the studio.  Bring basket tools, if you have them (shears or scissors, tape measure, clothes pins, flat-head screw driver or a Weave-rite basket tool).  You may use our tools, if you don’t have any.

 There must be 4 or more people signed up or the class will be cancelled.  Feel free to pass this class schedule on to your friends.
