Bowl Turning at Fire in the Mountain Festival

At this year’s Fire in the Mountain , (an epic folk music festival!) I’ll be joining the Craft Collective gang! They host workshops and loads of fun stuff over the weekend.

I’ll be teaching bowl turning, and there’ll be workshops in basket making, spoon carving and all manner of fun stuff.

so if anyone happens to be coming along to this lovely festival in between the Cambrian mountains and beautiful Cardigan bay, come and learn to turn a bowl with me!

Testimonials

“wonderful workshop led by wonderful teacher with a relaxed and friendly teaching style and loads of knowledge” - Beginners Willow Basketry A. Higlett

“I felt at ease right away with Flo. There was a lightness and down-to-earth-ness that really set the tone for the weekend, which I really appreciated. Flo is patient and good-humoured, not to mention extremely skilled, all of which meant for a thoroughly enjoyable and satisfying weaving experience.” - Split Hazel Basketry - J. Branson

“It was great a great course and I really enjoyed it.  I hadn't done any basketry before and Flo took everyone's experience into account” - Split Hazel Basketry -A. Greaves

“Flo is bloody marvellous! She makes learning new skills feel super fluid and relaxed. You are left feeling like you can achieve anything with the right gentle advice, and Flo's bags of enthusiasm and jolly nature make the whole thing a good laugh too. Very clearly described steps, and not too much (just the right amount of info) in each step so that you can more effortlessly absorb each chunk as you go through. Felt like it all locked neatly into place in my head. 100% recommend Flo as a teacher!” - Beginners Bowl Turning - N. Gibson
