This course and kit is suitable for complete beginners!

In the kit you will receive:

• On large bundle of thin gage willow rods, sustainably grown in Somerset. 
• Sparkly ribbon to hang your decorations up with.
• A wooden stand to stand your reindeer on.
• A soaking bag - your willow will need to be soaked for a few days before you weave it - full instructions are included.
• One information leaflet.

The course includes:

• Over three hours of expert instruction with leading basketmaker and teacher
  Mollie McMillen. 
• You can access the course from any device by logging into our website (we will provide you with login details after purchase). 
• Our courses are produced by our BAFTA-winning team of filmmakers which means
  they are clearly presented and well thought out. 
• Students are taught the right information at the right time, which means they get great results. Plus we are always on hand to answer questions.

For this course you will be using so-called 'brown willow', which is willow in it's natural state with the bark still on. 

To make it pliable for weaving you will need to soak it for three days in the soaking bag provided with the kit. 

That might sound like a lot but it's extremely easy - all you do is put the willow in the bag, fill it with water and leave it outside on the ground (full instructions are included in the course).

Brown willow is essential for this project because we've found that it's actually easier for beginners to work with. It's more flexible and it never snaps when you're weaving it round tight corners - and there are plenty of those in this course!

If you've never used brown willow before it's an absolute must, and once you've tried it you'll never look back!

Each project will take you around 1-1.5 hours to make.

We design all our courses so that they require absolutely minimal
tools. To do this course you will need: 

• A pair of secateurs
• Some celotape
• A tape measure
• Maybe a glass of wine!

That’s it!
