CREATIVE WORKSHOPS · CHILDREN & ADULTS

Little hands.
Big discoveries.

A strand of willow can start a whole adventure. I introduce weaving through play, helping children explore, create and make something of their own.Natural willow, curious hands, something made by you. I make the first steps in weaving playful and welcoming.

NATURAL MATERIALS. LIVING TRADITIONS.

Creative activities for children

Looking for a school workshop or a nature-inspired children’s activity? I introduce the basics of weaving, with a project suited to the group and their ages.

Meet the willow

Touch, bend and try the first weaves. Simple shapes introduce a wonderfully versatile material.

Weave a bird feeder

Make something for the birds by hand. A chance to talk about nature and caring for the world around us.

Wind spinners & your ideas

Play with shape, rhythm and movement. A wind spinner, a small decoration or an idea dreamed up by the group.

More than something to take home.

Practising hand skills

Holding, bending, threading: small movements practised through play.

Focus & patience

One step at a time, trying things out and seeing their work take shape.

The joy of creating

Their own choices and solutions. And that proud moment: I made this!

A traditional craft workshop for schools

Weaving can connect with art, practical skills or learning about nature. Crafts is a school subject in Sweden; Norway’s art and crafts curriculum also includes making with natural materials and traditional techniques.

TIME TO CREATE · BEGINNERS WELCOME

Craft workshops for adults

Take time to make something, on your own or with friends. I’ll teach you to weave, even if you’ve never tried it. Bring an idea, and I’ll adapt the project and pace to you.

I’d like to try weaving

Bring your idea.
I’ll help you weave it.

A children’s group, a school activity or time to create as an adult? Tell me who it’s for, the group size, where and when. An idea is enough to start.

Plan a workshop
I’ll plan the details with you

I take the group’s ages, size, available time and location into account when choosing an activity. We’ll agree on materials and tools in advance. You don’t need a finished plan.
