Nature Art Weaving Class
This offering began with the Emotional Well-being, Art, and Youth Work training course, at Ciderhuset, Balestrand, Norway, where I shared the intuitive art of weaving with youth workers from 22 countries. It was a collaboration under Erasmus+, where creativity became a tool for emotional well-being.
Blending weaving with nature, this class invites you to work with what the earth provides within the seasons, or location. Flowers, greenery, driftwood, and seasonal wonders. It’s a therapeutic practice of grounding and slowing down, where each material connects you to the rhythms of the natural world.
Here, you’ll find the beauty in working with your hands and letting the process guide you. This is a space for quiet reflection, for being in the moment, and for creating something alive with the textures and colors of nature.

This class is a journey of transformation. You will be introduced into the ancient art of weaving, using floor and table looms, participants cut and repurpose secondhand clothes and textiles into vibrant woven creations. It’s about turning what no longer serves you into something meaningful and alive.
