Traditional Wicker Basket Weaving
A grandmother and her granddaughter spend time outdoors on a wooden bench, working together to weave flexible willow branches into a sturdy wicker basket on a garden patio.
The Art of Working with Willow
Willow twigs used for wicker weaving are harvested during late fall or winter when the plant is dormant and sap levels are low. Crafters soak the dried branches in water for several days before weaving to make the wood pliable and easy to bend without snapping. Once dried, properly woven wicker containers can remain strong and useful for decades.
Colors of Natural Basketry Materials
- Willow branches: golden brown, warm tan, or pale cream
- Finished wicker basket: light brown, beige, or dark amber
- Garden bench: natural wood tones, cedar, or soft brown
- Outdoor patio surface: gray stone or terra cotta brick
