COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Students will be shown how to make two pushchairs of different sizes. They will have the opportunity to practice weaving before actually starting the pushchairs. Wheels will be provided. A moto tool will be used for making holes in the bases of the pushchairs. Then, students will make a small wicker Moses basket for a small baby. The instructor will do step-by-step demonstrations and will give each student some written explanations and drawings.
