Maker's bio

With over a decade of teaching experience, Sarah offers 1 - 2 day willow basketmaking workshops for both beginners and those with existing willow weaving experience. Being passionate about natural materials and skilled traditional craftsmanship, Sarah has designed and created for you several different workshops that explore willow weaving, English basketry techniques and enable you to create your own truly special baskets and sculptures. All workshops are held in Mid Devon, (just 15 minutes from Junction 27 of the M5), and through teaming up with the nearby Lost Kitchen restaurant, not only do you receive expert tuition in a great venue but a lovely lunch too!

Sue Pym reviewed: Willow Reindeer Sculpture Day with Sarah Le Breton Willow

"A lovely day with lovely like minded people. I just wish there were more hours in the day and I had a money tree to fulfill my passion to learn as many willow designs as possible. "

Sarah Le Breton Willow responded:

" Thank you Sue for your lovely review! It was great teaching you all on Friday and seeing your wonderful Reindeer emerge. Glad that you've caught the 'willow bug' and hope that I do get to teach you again in the future. Best wishes, Sarah"

Sarah Childs-Carlile reviewed: Willow Beginners Round Basket Workshop with Sarah Le Breton Willow

"What an excellent, thoroughly enjoyable day. I felt I learned so much, not just about the practical side of basket making but also about the history of the craft. Sarah was a wonderful teacher and her enthusiasm knew no bounds. I also (amazingly) ended up with a gorgeous basket! Thank you Sarah for a fabulous day. "

Sarah Le Breton Willow responded:

" Hi Sarah, Thank you so much for your lovely review! I’m so pleased that you love you basket and hope that you use it for many years to come. The group was exceptional, my brain couldn’t quite take in that you were all willow basket newbies! Wishing you a lovely Autumn Sarah "

Owen Lewis reviewed: Willow Beginners Round Basket Workshop with Sarah Le Breton Willow

"Had a fabulous time on Wednesday making a willow basket for the first time with Sarah. I took my wife and mother along and all managed to make beautiful and functional baskets in a single day. The lunch was delicious, and we can't wait to use the baskets to collect our produce on the allotment. Already wanting to come back and make more!"

Sarah Le Breton Willow responded:

" Thank you so much Owen for your great review. It was brilliant teaching you all and I do hope that you enjoy using your baskets for many years to come! Best wishes, Sarah"
