Have you mastered broomcorn? Ready for a new adventure? Let’s dive into tampico fiber brooms and brushes—where traditional craft meets refined elegance.
In this workshop, you’ll explore the unique properties of tampico fiber, a softer, more delicate material perfect for creating beautiful brushes and smaller brooms. Unlike the sturdy broomcorn you may already know, tampico offers a gentler touch, ideal for dusting delicate surfaces, cleaning keyboards, or creating decorative brushes that are as useful as they are beautiful.
What you’ll create: A collection of handcrafted tampico fiber brushes and brooms in various sizes—from compact desk brushes to elegant hand brooms. Each piece features your choice of wrapped handle designs using leather cord in rich, natural tones.
What’s Included: All materials including tampico fibers, binding materials, and leather cord for decorative wrapping. Plus coffee, good company, and expert guidance throughout.
The Experience: Three hours of focused making where you’ll create multiple pieces to take home. The rhythmic process of binding tampico fiber is even more meditative than broomcorn work, offering a different kind of satisfaction as you watch delicate brushes take shape under your hands.
