Besom or Broom Workshop

The definition of Besom is “a broom made of twigs tied around a stick”!

This workshop will be a little more detailed and creative . In this class you will have a Pinot Noir Handle and the brush will be made from Carl Foerster grasses harvested from within the Okanagan valley.

This broom can be functional or for decoration- ready to fly away to your home at the end of the day!

The workshops are held in Annabel's studio in West Kelowna overlooking her vineyard, the Okanagan valley and towards the surrounding mountains including Big White Mountain.
