Meet up point, by the big table of Richmond community gardens hub at 46A Vogel street.
Unique workshop that encompasses most widely used techniques of weaving out of plants from around the world (we'll use flax/harakeke on the day, with the reference to other possible plants that can be used). Explained in a simple way. Suitable for beginners only.
Embark on a creative journey with Inga from the Foraging and Growing Corner in an upcoming Flax Weaving Water Bottle Workshop at the garden!
In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn the art of weaving with flax to craft your own unique water bottle holder. It's a perfect blend of nature, creativity, and practicality.
Water bottle holders are designed to encourage more people to walk and explore life with a bit less rush and everyone who forgets to stay hydrated. Same techniques can be adjusted to weaving plant pot holders. Which we did quite a few tk. Esduring the workshops too.
Bringing a water bottle is a must, plastic bottle ones do work yet sometimes they don t too. Upside down cone shaped plasticky bottles don t work well or at all, glass or metal or plastic water bottles work best.
