BASKET WEAVING

A Women’s Circle for Connection, Community and Creativity

Basket Weaving is more than a craft

It’s a meditation, a connection to ancestral wisdom, and a practice that invites mindfulness, creativity, and inner peace.

Escape the hustle and grind of everyday life and immerse yourself in a rejuvenating experience that redefines self-care—where busy hands and a quiet mind invite a deeper connection to yourself and other like-minded women.

My Basket Weaving Classes, Retreats, and Women’s Circles offer you an immersive experience where ancient traditions, hands-on craftsmanship, and sisterhood come together in a sacred space for personal growth and connection.

Escape from the grind of everyday life for a weekend to give your relationship the time and space it deserves.

Hands-on Weaving Techniques

Learn the beautiful art of basket weaving, using natural indigenous grasses sourced sustainably and respectfully. Our expert guides will teach you how to create your own functional and decorative baskets, step by step.

Connection to Ancestry & Earth

Feel the grounding power of working with natural fibres, connecting to ancient wisdom, and honouring the traditions of women before us.

 

Every basket you weave tells a story, both personal and shared.

Sacred Space for Reflection

My weaving experiences are crafted to be both creative and profoundly restorative. As you settle into the quiet rhythm of weaving, you’ll discover space for self-reflection, grounding, and healing.

 

I guide the group through themes, stories, meditations, and meaningful conversations that are both deep and engaging.

 

Together, we uncover answers we didn’t know we were searching for and find the solutions we’ve been seeking.

Space...Love

Whether you’re new to basket weaving or have woven before, these experiences are for women seeking a deeper connection to themselves, their lineage, and the earth.

These experiences invite you to:

  • Calm your mind and body through the soothing rhythm of weaving with natural fibres

  • Reconnect with nature and ancestral traditions while deepening your bond with Mother Earth

  • Express your creativity in a way that relaxes and restores your energy

  • Open your heart and connect with a nurturing community of like-minded women

  • Embrace a peaceful space where you can grow, share, and reduce stress

  • Reconnect with the lineage of women before you and revive ancestral traditions that may have felt lost for generations, deepening your connection to the wisdom and strength passed down through time.

This is more than a creative escape—it’s a heart-centred journey of self-care, connection, and renewal.

What previous weavers say:

~ Annie

"It had been a while since I had been in any sort of women’s space or circle, and I was really longing for deep in-person connection and discussions again. So when I saw that Julie was offering a story weaving circle I instantly wanted in.
 
I went for Julie’s magic, and the medicine of being with other women. But I also have been surprised to also find some passion again for using my creative skills.
 
Doing something with your hands while sharing and listening deeply with other women is so fulfilling. It was healing to be in a space again, with other women’s stories mirroring my own experiences. Gaining wisdom not just from Julie but from the other women who attended. It was just what I needed!"

~ Julz

What I expected when I joined Julie’s basket weaving circle was to learn how to make a basket and likely meet  some like minded women.

That certainly happened, however I didn’t expect the depth of connection I’d experience with those women or the journey I’d take with my basket.

As Julie weaved her own basket with us, she also weaved lessons and insights for each of us through story medicine and her expert space holding. Learning a new skill as an adult brought up in me things I didn’t expect and Julie guided us all beautifully through every challenge.
 
I absolutely loved this experience. Highly recommend.

~ Emma. L

"I can’t begin to describe how powerful this retreat was for me. Weaving with natural fibres, guided by story medicine, helped me reconnect with my lineage and reflect on my journey as a woman.
 
The women’s circle created a space of safety, support, and deep connection, allowing me to open up in ways I didn’t anticipate.
 
I left with not only a beautiful basket but also a newfound sense of peace, clarity, and sisterhood. This experience was truly healing and incredibly fulfilling."
