Willow star for Christmas

Make a large willow star covered in random weaving and decorate it with fairy lights. Hang it on your front door instead of a wreath, show it off on the top of your tree or display it on a wall all year round.

  • Booking essential

Willow weaver Judith Needham will lead you through the process of weaving your star. Various sizes of our gorgeous willow star are possible. Fast workers may be able to make more than one. We’ll also make some smaller stars, little Christmas trees and maybe even a tiny reindeer. Suitable for beginners and those who have worked with willow before.

All materials will be provided (including fairy lights for your first star).
