About Straw Craft

Straw paintings are craft objects made by shaping straw into patterns and representational images. As time passed, the artisans acquired more skills in working with straw, and about a century ago, they created a very specific art— the art of weaving straw into pictures by using and combining the natural colours and shades of oats, barley, rye, wheat, and other grasses.
