"I started out in my basketmaking with a profound appreciation for nature and artistry. Through Willow Weaving by James, I am dedicated to the creation of exquisite handmade willow baskets. Each basket is unique, meticulously crafted with precision and a keen eye for detail. My journey in this artisan life started in 2023, continuing a family legacy as my grandfather was a skilled basket maker in Poland. I love to teach my craft, and pass on the skill and enjoyment to others."
