Weaving the Willow

This is some willow down the field.we are weaving and shaping it into a den for the kids.Huey says he's going on a bear hunt.! got some solar lights today for it. John is cutting a table and seats from his wood. Great project. want to make it fun but natural. welcome any ideas.... it will get bigger and thicker each year. john is making two curvy paths down to it.

Wow such lucky kids, beg you are so enjoying making that den, we never grow up do we? I have spent the morning making soup out of all sorts of wild things! Imagination is a wonderful thing!

What fun time you are all having -- the den will be specially posh with its own solar lights -- I hope they will frighten the bears off !!

That sounds brilliant, so much fun for the little ones - and the bigger ones to actually! I'd come to play ;)

Sounds like a wonderful project and such fun for the kids.

A great adventure for the children. Lovely idea.

how exciting and if Pat gives you her recipe for garden soup you will be able to serve it in the den
