From a customer:

"This is just a note to thank you for putting together such an easy project as the Camp Kit. We just used your kit (for the 2nd year) during our church's Vacation Bible School and they were a big hit! Everyone wanted to make one and they were so easy even the little kids (with some help from an older kid or a parent) could make them. I think the thing they liked best was that even though they all started with the same material, each basket was a unique creation."

Please place your teaching order in plenty of time to allow on-time delivery for your basket weaving event. If we need to ship via Air, it usually costs about FIVE TIMES the UPS Ground charges or more. (6-10 lb Next Day Air is about $70-$110 for shipping)
3 Day Select is the most reasonably priced of the Air deliveries. It arrives on the 4th day after you order. Eg., order on Monday, receive 3 Day Select on Thursday. 

How about TEACHING basket weaving?  

OK- you've been weaving for a good while- you love basket weaving, and everyone says that you're really good at it too. Now you want to teach classes. But where do you go to get started?

We have an excellent booklet by veteran teacher & designer Linda Hebert which covers everything you need to know to get started teaching Basket weaving classes. Whether you've had in mind to start classes in your home- or would like to do classes for a church or school group- this booklet will help you to be prepared for anything. General teaching guidelines, class scheduling, suggested charges, materials lists, class size and so on. All sorts of information that you probably never considered (unless you're already a teacher!) is covered to help give you self-confidence and make even your first classes a success. This booklet proves that knowing how to weave baskets is but a small part of actually teaching the skills. Invaluable!      $ 3.95
