The dust has settled on a wet & wonderful Tear Up - Willow & Fibre Festival and I'm feeling freshly nourished and eager to get my head down for the next 2 months completing a Hamper order. The plank has been a calling💪🌿

Tear Up - Willow & Fibre Festival is the most rewarding thing I've ever done.

Thank you to everyone who has embraced our little festival. Time seems to stand still for 1 week every 2 years in a small corner of Staffordshire, where weird, wonderful and magical things happen.

The aim when we started was to create connections, community and share knowledge of our craft. A place to encourage new makers & inspire seasoned ones. These will always remain Tear Up Festivals core principles.

Basketry in all its forms is absolutely knocking it out the park, long may this continue💪

I look forward to doing it all again in two years time. We hope you'll join us & thank you all again for making it possible🙏🌿

This wee little hamper is off to its new home🌿

One of the wonderful things about basketmaking is that it's needy, and requires your attention. Woe betide I become complacent, if and when I do the basket is quick to show my lack of care.

It's great to be back working in stripped willow again, it's been quite the hiatus!

My fav style of Chest Hamper. English stake up with end posts & 5 rod lip wale with rounded corners to boot🤌

I have x30 of these fellas to make for the end of October, what a gig, lucky me🤩💪🌿

Staking up a blunt cornered square basket💪🌿

Hamper details - the top of these chest hampers are finished off with a 5 rod wale which acts as a lip for the lid to rest on. The section above is the narrowest rod border available, a 2 rod border, this is necessary to leave ample space for the lid to slide over.
The best result for me is when the lid and border ever so lightly kiss when opening or shutting😘🌿

If you ever get chance to make a basket, I highly recommend it, the feeling is bludy lovely!
