Willow weaving butterfly kit

These butterflys are so cute  so why not sit back and  relax and create them in your own time .

 Kit contents

 All of the materials that you need  to create  two butterflys which includes basketry grade willow, which has been preshaped , willow wound into circles to allow you to soak it in a bucket  and written instuctions with step by step images. 

You will need to provide

• A large bucket or container to  soak the willow which will take 5 ish days  
• A  large towel 
• A  pair of secateurs or wire cutters  Something short and spikey e,g a knitting needle or small ended screw driver or bradawl if you have one 

The willow I have included still has its bark on so you will need to allow 5ish days to prepare it in advance of making. and maybe longer if it is being soaked outside in  the cold 

Additional considerations

You will need relatively strong  hands to make this  with  a good grip, the activity would be suitable for teenagers and over
