Tump Willows.
Basketry workshops, bespoke workshops for adults and children.
About.
Lin from Tump Willows has cultivated a deep passion for willow basketry over the past 20 years, sparked by her role teaching the craft and inspired by the abundant natural resources in her forest home. Her fascination with willow extends beyond its beauty and variety; she appreciates its practicality, durability, and potential for artistic expression.
The name "Tump Willows" reflects the local Gloucestershire landscape, rooted in the term "tump," which denotes a small hill. Lin's commitment to sharing the joys of weaving has become a rewarding journey of creativity and community.
The workshops are mostly based in the beautiful Forest of Dean.
Of course Lin will always come to you for those special events, please just ask!
