Prince Hamlet is the king’s nephew and heir. Ophelia is in love with Hamlet but, during the course of the play, he not only spurns her, but murders her father. This drives her to insanity and, at the end of the famous ‘mad’ scene; she hands out flowers with telling messages: There's rosemary, that's for remembrance: pray you, love, remember: and there is pansies, that's for thoughts. There's fennel for you, and columbines: there's rue for you; and here's some for me: we may call it herb of grace o' Sundays: O you must wear your rue with a difference. There's a daisy: I would give you some violets, but they withered all when my father died: [Act 4, Scene 5, Line 175]   Full Course Content: Included are SIX instructional videos, you might draw the flowers individually or combine them in a posy, or use them as a border perhaps: Oxlip (Primula elatior) - Run Time: 3hrs5mins Wood Violet or Common Dog Violet (Viola riviniana) - Run Time: 2hrs Woodbine (Honeysuckle) with a Hawkmoth on black - Run Time: 2hrs45mins Sweet Briar Eglantine or Dog Rose - Run Time: 3hrs42mins Columbine Posy with Fennel - Run Time: 2hrs20mins Ox Eye Daisy - Run Time: 1hr20mins

    With Hilary Burns - website

    On this course you’ll learn how to construct a frame basket – using frames pre-made and steam-bent by the tutor. Later, on the course, is the chance to try forming these yourself. Willow, in different bark colours from Hilary’s collection of varieties, will be used for the frames, ribs and weaving the body of the basket. A knife is used for shaping the ribs.

    Frame basketry is an ancient basketmaking technique, used by itinerant travellers and rural agricultural workers, it is not generally found in the workshop production of baskets. With hoop frame, for rim and optional handle, ribs forming the body of the basket, woven over with rods that may be whole or split, the forms are more complex than appears at first glance.

    Once you have gained an understanding of how to put the structure together the permutations: shallow, deep, round, oval, melon, boat-shape, split and shaved ribs are all possible.

    Hilary is an experienced tutor and is happy to discuss your requirements in advance. Beginners and more experienced basketmakers are welcome.

    Hand craft one, two or even three beautiful shaker boxes in Cherry and Maple using Shaker materials and methods. A relaxed and gentle process using veneers, the copper tacks that hold the bands and the wooden pegs that pin the bands to the lids and bases are imported from America. Each stage and process closely follows the traditions. The Shaker lifestyle required a practical flexible storage system for household and workshop use. They adapted an English design of box which was almost round, and changed the proportions to the now classic oval design. The distinctive swallow tails of the joint were designed for practical purposes and with the bevelled detail give a stylish hallmark to the finished box.
