Come along and weave a beautiful set of Angels Wings to hang on your door or as a gift for someone you love.
We will weave with the supple Weeping Willow for it's a long history of symbolism. There are references to the willow tree in Celtic and Christian tradition, among others. One of the most valuable traits of the willow tree is its flexibility and it's beautiful to weave with!!
The willow tree is one of the few trees that is capable of bending in outrageous poses without snapping. This can be a powerful metaphor for those of us seeking recovery or a spiritual path. 
Another powerful symbolic meaning of the willow tree is its adaptability, the willow tree’s ability to not only survive, but also thrive in some of the most challenging conditions. We can also look at how the willow tree encourages the expression of deep emotions, including grief and sadness through tears and teaching us the value and consequences of love and loss. One of the greatest symbolic meanings of the willow tree is that even through great loss we have the ability to grow and there is potential for something new.
Morning tea will be Devonshire Tea/Coffee. Bring your lunch.
