Activities or habits that are inherited and owned by a certain member of society, affect many aspects of life, including religion, customs, politics, language, clothing, buildings, to works of art. The purun products produced by partners have� relatively little change because the products produced are limited and there are not many options, so they are only used by certain circles and for limited occasions. This product requires breakthrough ideas, both in terms of design/model, and user designation, so that the existence and sustainability of its production can continue to be improved, The purpose of this activity is to provide assistance for community entrepreneurs as business partners by offering solutions / providing insights and encouraging craftsmen to be able to further develop new ideas and breakthroughs in making designs / models in order to produce more modern products according to the tastes of today's consumers

 

INTRODUCTION

The Purun plant has a hollow straight stem and is leafless.� Generally, Purun is used as tikar, hats, baskets and kitchen spices and fish. Before being woven, Pcrowdfunding is first processed into raw materials (Priangani, 2013).� The process of processing Purun until it is ready to weave, of course, goes through several stages (Subiyakto et al., 2022).� After being harvested, the prune is immediately dried to dry, after which the purun is ground with the intention of changing its originally round shape to thin / flattened elongated, making it easier during the weaving process (Tamelan, Laos, & Boimau, 2021). This growing uses a tool in the form of a pestle whose base is rather wide and made of wood (Isnaini, 2019). �Furthermore, the process of menganyam is carried out. Purun weaving is an activity where a person makes or produces a work in the form of a mat or other artwork using weaving techniques by combining several materials into a pattern that has use and aesthetic value (Akmal & Prihatin, 2020).

Partners are craftsmen who in their daily lives weave purun to increase the cost of living. In addition, other side jobs make cold herbs and powder (Puspadewi & Putra, 2014).

The purun products produced by partners have relatively little change because the products produced are limited and there are not many options, so they are only used by certain circles and for limited occasions (Irwansyah & Rusniati, 2012).

This product requires breakthrough ideas, both in terms of design / model, as well as the designation of its users, so that the existence and sustainability of its production can continue to be improved (Ariswoyo & Nasution, 2005), The solution offered to overcome the above problems is to provide insight and encourage craftsmen to further develop new ideas and breakthroughs in making designs / models in order to be able to produce more modern products, and in accordance with the tastes of today's consumers (Najiyati, Asmana, & Suryadiputra, n.d.).
