wonderful willow

Last year I starting learning how to weave baskets with willow, I cut all the willow back so that I would have fresh willow for this year. 


As chance would have it my dear friend Leen was holding a workshop yesterday, so we cut our willow the day before 


and went off for a day together (what, an actual day off, together!!) and sat in the sun (miracle), I made a basket which I donated to a new friend 


and Rick prepped willow, sharpened secateurs and made some new friends


and it was all very pleasant indeed.

Glad you had a productive day, all of you! And the sun was shining too! X

oh that's just gorgeous! I'd like to make outdoor beds with the stuff, I love the colour!
