Wednesday 11th March, 2026 Straw acorns, oak leaves and straw plaiting

2 hr
From 15 British pounds

Service Description

I have been asked to show how I make my acorns and oak leaves so many times so in this workshop I will show you. We will also cover 3 different plaits and will talk about overcoming the issues with shorter straws from last year's harvest. This design is displayed on a slice of wood which I thought appropriate for the project but you could frame it, add it to a larger art work or use it as it is. This class will be delivered via Zoom and will be recorded for you to look at as often as you want. Materials Needed 40 plaiting straws, medium thickness, straws should be dampened 30 fine straws, dampened 3 wooden oval shaped beads approx 2cm in length Strong thread Scissors, craft scissors and longer bladed scissors Straw splitter (6 or 4 fin) container with water for keeping straw damp 20cm ish in length A spray bottle with water Glue gun and glue stick or other adhesive for putting the design together Slice of wood if you are doing the same design as me.
