Join us at the shop and learn how to make three brooms; a Cobwebber, Whisk, and Mushroom Cleaner broom! Do you have ceiling cobwebs? Dust bunnies under the bed? Come on and admit it, we all do! Learn to weave a Cobwebber Broom to get to those hard-to-reach places. This broom is a great way to learn how to weave a broom with a handle. You will also learn to plait a lovely woven top using broom stalks. You will start by making a short whisk broom to get the feel of that tying on a broom is like. The top of the small whisk will be separated and can be used as a mushroom scrubber or to get crumbs off the table. Please note that broom making requires hand and shoulder strength. You will also be encouraged to manipulate what is called the foot treadle (for keeping tension while winding and tying your brooms) with your feet so it is best to remove your shoes for better control. We will be using broom corn to make our brooms, and a variety of colorful nylon cord will be available for you to choose as your accent color.
