Add a touch of handmade magic to your festive season with this full-day sculpture workshop, led by renowned basket maker and artist Joe Gregory.
For over 15 years, Joe has been teaching this beloved Christmas class, helping guests bring their very own reindeer or stag sculptures to life from English willow.
Standing approximately 1 metre tall and 45cm long (though no two are ever the same), these beautiful reindeer/Stag sculpture in Willow are full of character and charm—perfect for nestling into a winter garden or becoming a standout feature in your seasonal decor. With care, they’ll bring joy to your home for many Christmases to come.
Throughout the day, you’ll learn traditional and sculptural willow weaving techniques, working with sustainable materials and expert guidance in a relaxed, encouraging environment. This workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some weaving experience.
