Willow Weaving Retreat Day
Spend a relaxed spring day weaving, creating and switching off
Step away from the rush of everyday life and enjoy a calm, creative day working with beautiful natural willow.
This Willow Weaving Retreat Day is designed to be unhurried and enjoyable — a small, friendly group, gentle step-by-step guidance, and plenty of time to relax with tea, cake and a homemade lunch.
By the end of the day, you’ll go home with two practical and beautiful pieces for your garden, made entirely by you.
No experience is needed — beginners are very welcome.
What you’ll make
During the day you will create:
A full-size willow plant support
Perfect for sweet peas, beans, clematis or other climbing plants.
A spring willow planter basket
Ideal for seasonal flowers by your door, patio or garden.
All materials are included, and you’ll be guided through each stage at a comfortable pace.
What’s included
All willow and materials
Step-by-step tuition in a small group (maximum 12 people)
Tea/coffee and homemade shortbread on arrival
Homemade cake
A relaxed, homemade lunch
Afternoon tea before finishing
This is a day to slow down, enjoy the process, and spend time doing something creative and satisfying.

A note from Lorna
I keep my workshops friendly, supportive and unhurried. The aim is not perfection, but enjoyment — and the satisfaction of taking home something you’ve made yourself.
I’d love you to join me.
