LEARN: Willow Animal Sculpture

Join Amanda to learn how to make a willow animal sculpture using locally sourced Somerset willow. Each workshop is suitable for beginners with no experience of willow weaving. Amanda will guide you through the process of creating your sculpture and give you options so that you can customise your sculpture.

All materials will be provided, however willow weaving is a messy activity so please wear old comfortable clothing or an apron.

About the workshop leader:

I fell in love with willow at Christmas 2000 when I took part in a willow weaving workshop, and it has been my material of choice ever since. The willow I use is grown on the Somerset Levels within a mile of my house making it a local and sustainable material. However, being a full-time teacher weaving was just a hobby as I never had the time to fully commit to my art. That all changed in 2022 when after 33 years of teaching I retired and started Amanda Webb Makes creating and selling my sculptures along with sharing my passion through teaching hundreds of people of all ages how to weave in my workshops.
