CREATIVE people in the Staffordshire Moorlands are being offered the chance to learn how to make a basket.
Moorlands-based basket maker and willow artist Rachel Evans is running a one-day course for beginners to make a basket out of willow and colourful hedgerow materials on Saturday at Oakamoor Village Hall.
Ms Evans said: “I have been running courses in Oakamoor Village Hall since last September and they have proved popular. Some of the courses I have run there include basketry, Christmas willow crafts and making animal sculptures.
“During the hedgerow basketry course, you will make a round basket out of willow and incorporate materials such as hazel, dogwood, hawthorn and lime twigs to make a functional and beautiful item made of Staffordshire materials.”
