Floor Broom Workshop

Classes
Fall 2024|#11213

16 yrs +, Mixed
Daytime Adult

Description

Learn how to make your very own functional floor broom from start to finish! You will leave the workshop with at least one completed broom, and hopefully, the ability to make more! You’ll learn about the history of broom making, forays and then we’ll jump into learning how to make a broom, select sorghum, a handle, hemp cord, and begin the process! We will drill our handles, learn the starting and finishing techniques, discuss adding additional fibers/elements to a wrap, select colors, and learn how to stitch clamp/flatten a finished broom. No previous experience necessary.
