Making the Bug Box
- 5 June 2012
Wire a rectangle from four willow twigs.
Make another panel exactly the same size as the first.
Separate the two panels with four short twigs and secure with wire to create a box
Make sure the box is perfectly balanced and can stand straight up.
Weave a few thinner hazel branches around the box structure to soften the lines and secure the structure.
As you weave, add a curved handle over the top of the bug box.
Decorate the structure with flowers, foliage or butterflies
Tie the rings to the box with a ribbon
