Rope Bowls
Join us for a fun, hands-on workshop where you’ll learn to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind rope bowls! You’ll master the techniques for starting both round and oval shapes, explore ways to add color and pattern for extra personality, and learn how to finish your bowls with unique touches that reflect your individual style. These eye-catching creations make thoughtful handmade gifts—or keep them for yourself to add a pop of charm to your home décor!
