Why Weave?
Why Weave?
Basket weaving is more than just a craft. Itβs a form of healing, a mindful practice that encourages you to slow down, focus, and reconnect with yourself. Using your hands to weave creates a rhythm that promotes relaxation and reduces stress, making it a powerful tool for mental well-being.
With our Coolamon Basket Weaving Kit, youβll not only learn the art of weaving, but you'll also engage with an ancient cultural practice passed down through generations of Indigenous weavers. The natural and coloured raffia provided in the kit reflects the traditional materials used in Aboriginal basketry, allowing you to connect with history while creating something uniquely your own.
