Cobweb Brooms, Simple, Traditional Appalachian

Cobweb Brooms, Simple, Traditional Appalachian

$69

The Appalachian Cobweb Broom was especially designed to get cobwebs off the ceilings of the mountain settlers' rustic cabins. To accomplish this, the broom is tied Beson style (sewn round) onto a long, light handle for reaching into high spaces easily & the broomcorn is left long & u trimmed, so that the bristly tips of the natural fibers can snag & whisk cobwebs away effortlessly.

ARTIST STATEMENT
When I follow my bliss, it always leads me to The Great Outdoors. In Nature, I find the inspiration, materials and a state of well-being; all of which coalesce into the creation of my Art. Living in the Appalachian Mountains, I’m surrounded by a rich history of time-honored traditions and a legacy of handcraft. To me, historic handcrafts embolden a greater simplicity and a deeper connection to Nature, so I naturally gravitate to the olde-tymey way of doing things.

For me, “Art is Life”, so I strive to use sustainable, renewable resources, and materials that are “alive”. I work in tandem with Mother Nature, collaborating respectfully in the creation of our work; acknowledging the divine intelligence in all things, and revealing our oneness with the Earth and with each other.
