Basket Weaving

Harbour Retreat’s Basket Weaving is a fun morning of creating functional art out of reclaimed materials. You be weaving a medium sized basket with a handle and cork bottom. It’s perfect for holding towels, dog toys, mittens, or take it with you to the beach or market.

What You’ll Experience

  • Learn the techniques of weaving on a jig

  • Hear about the life of the rope before it ended up in your hands

  • Feel good about recycling ocean waste and loving our planet

  • Go home with a unique piece of household decor that will last a lifetime
  • Receive a personalized energy reading on your basket weave.

Perfect for Beginners

No experience required! The process is quite meditative with repetitive hand movements. You’ll be guided and assisted throughout the entire workshop.

Workshop Length

10am to Noon


Martinique Beach
