  • A brief history and uses of hand brooms
  • Traditional Shaker/Appalachian binding and wrapping techniques
  • How to select and prepare broomcorn for a whisk
  • Step-by-step guidance to craft your own wrapped Turkey Wing Whisk to take home

Whether you’re drawn to heritage crafts, seasonal rituals, or simply love working with your hands, this workshop offers a meaningful way to connect with timeless skills and leave with something useful and beautiful.

Some hand strength is required. Material and tools will be supplied. 

Cost: $150. All materials included. Additional whisk kits can be purchased separately after class.
