Welig Crafts 

k

Our work at Welig Crafts ranges from traditional Irish willow basketry to contemporary living willow structure.  We teach basketry and other willow work and also grow willow. We aim to create beautiful objects for everyday use and display and are keen to keep traditional practices alive.

You can view examples of our work, training courses and willow on this website. Latest information about our appearances for demonstrations and exhibition can be found in the Training and Demonstrations Section of the website.
