Hi I am a self taught willow artist and live in Somerset, surrounded by willow! I make all sorts of commission pieces and you can see my work at The Swannery, Abbotsbury . I run willow sculpture workshops at Studi0ne,Bridport,River Cottage & Symondsbury Estate,The David Hall,South Petherton, Flowerdew Farm, and Musgroves Willow located in Dorset, Devon and Somerset. From hares to deer, pigs, bees, dragonfly and flying owls, Christmas wreaths, to name a few! I can also come to you if you can get 8 people together-local village hall.....

Frances Saunders reviewed: Willow Deer at The David Hall with Jo Sadler

"A really enjoyable and creative day that ended up with a sculpture to take home that far exceeded my expectations. Jo is an excellent teacher with an engaging style that kept us all motivated, especially when we were got tired from concentrating. Her knowledge of the craft and choice of materials was inspirational. The time flew by! I would recommend a session with Jo to anyone, regardless of their artistic abilities. You could surprise yourself for what you can achieve in 9 hours!"

Jo Sadler at Forged n Willow responded:

"That's fantastic. They were lovely. Thank you for your company too!"

"A lovely day and we learnt so much. We will definitely do another day with Jo, making owls next time, I hope. Well worth every penny too. "

Jo Sadler at Forged n Willow responded:

"Thank you. I look forward to seeing you again. The Deer were lovely. Jo"

Mary reviewed: Willow Sitting HareStudi0ne Bridport

"Jo managed to support the range of abilities in the group really well. It was hard work but very fulfilling with a sculpture to take home at the end of the day. Jo was also serious about the health and safety aspects of the location and work content. This was my first experience of willow weaving and perhaps could have done with more time, however, I had learnt enough to be able to finish off and tidy up my sculpture when I got home. I would definitely recommend Jo’s workshop and hope to attend another in the future. A great learning experience - thank you Jo."
