This video (26 min) will give you a great start to weaving your first splint reed chair. It includes tips and tricks, information on materials, a tool list, process discussion on the herringbone pattern, and information on how to seal your finished seat. We brought in a student to learn alongside you....it's not just an expert making it look easy.
The long version (52 minutes) is unlisted and available for $10. This version includes much more information on joining strands, how to figure out if you screwed up, how to correct mistakes, more information on maintenance, and less fast forwarding so you can dive deep into how to fill in the sides, and more. If you'd like the link, please email SilverRiverChairs@gmail.com or call 828-707-4553. The proceeds will help fund our upcoming online Master Classes. It's great for beginners and intermediate weavers can pick up a few new techniques and tricks for saving time and effort.
