Rope Bowls, Baskets, Coasters, & Trivets Virtual Workshop

$125.00

Quantity:

Learn the joy of turning simple rope & scraps of fabric into beautiful functional forms! We will start by coiling rope into coasters & trivets, then graduate to bowl & basket shapes. You will learn how to shape the form, insert fabric if desired, & create a variety of useful vessels & forms. I have these all over my house as beverage coasters, under plant pots, storage organizers, key bowl, & more! It’s much easier than it seems, highly additive, & they make impressive gifts too!

Since having the correct rope for the bowls is key, 200’ of rope is included in the cost of the workshop, including shipping!

If you want to incorporate fabric scraps into your projects, you can do that too! Medium and light weight woven fabrics made from natural fibers, cut into 1/2-1” bias strips are best.

This is a 1-part class, with 3 hours of class time.

If you prefer your package sent to an address different from your billing address, please contact me within 48 hours of placing your order. Because of mailing limitations, the rope kit can only be mailed to US addresses. If you are outside of the US & want to attend this workshop, please contact me to discuss.
