Hello folks. I was wondering where I can find horse hair and the appropriate dyes for it here in the bay area? I’m using it for an art project and y’all seem to be familiar with the material for weaving some gorgeous-looking baskets. I appreciate any suggestions you may have.
Thanks!
Hi Crystal,
thank you for visiting our website. You could try The Caning Shop on 926 Gilman in Berkeley (under Resources/Classes on sidebar of this website) they also have dye. Laci’s on Adeline may also have some horse hair. You could also contact Amanda Salm (also listed on sidebar of this website). Another option is to find yourself a cowboy boyfriend! Good luck with your art project. Send us a pic when done.
