Intro to Upcycled Basketry with Mayes Makes

Discover how to transform everyday household items into functional art. In this workshop, Sam-Mayes will guide you through the ancient craft of twined basketry using materials you already have at home. You will learn to hand-craft your own "weavers" and "spokes" from paper, turning humble scraps into a unique trinket dish. By mastering the fundamentals of starting, weaving, and finishing, you’ll leave with the skills to scale your creations—from tiny treasures to large-scale vessels.

All materials provided; just bring yourself.
