The workshop centers slowness, touch, and intention, inviting participants to reflect on what they choose to hold, honor, or release.Participants will leave with a completed basket that can be used as an offering vessel, catchall, or personal altar object.Materials ProvidedNatural raffia fiberBase forms or starter coilsOptional natural elements (wood beads, knots, shells, or found objects)Instruction and historical contextClosing Reflection Prompt  What does this basket hold for you—memory, rest, intention, or offering?
