Blackwood Broom Works

Enter the Workshop

Gather around the worktable and make a broom entirely your own. Blackwood Broom Works gives you everything you need to host a wildly creative broom-making workshop.

The workshop doors are open.

Blackwood Broom Works begins with a table piled high with branches, grasses, dried flowers, ribbon and twine—and a few people gathered around it wondering what, exactly, they’re going to make.

Choose a handle. Dig through the Broom Bar. Borrow an idea, change your mind, add something strange. Before long, everyone is making a broom entirely their own while the table gets messier, the food gets passed around and no two creations look remotely alike.

It’s part workshop, part gathering and just immersive enough to make an ordinary afternoon or evening feel like you’ve stepped somewhere else for a while. Make something beautiful. Make something strange. Make something wildly impractical.

Everything you need to open the workshop doors.

We’ve done the figuring out so you can get to the fun part. Blackwood Broom Works gives you a complete plan for turning a table full of branches, botanicals and beautiful odds and ends into a creative gathering your people will actually want to come to.

Inside, you’ll find guidance for choosing the version of Blackwood that works for you—from foraging your materials to starting with a ready-made broom—plus everything you need to set up the Broom Bar, create the atmosphere, feed your people and help everyone make something entirely their own.
