About this Willow Swallows Kit

In this brand new course and kit, you’ll learn to how to make a willow swallow to hang on your wall or in your garden. Each kit comes with enough willow to weave al least three full-size swallows and maybe a couple of smaller ones too! During the course you’ll learn how to create the curved wings, how to weave the body and how to attach the two of them together. For this course you'll use natural unpeeled willow as it can be left outside without deteriorating and its also better for bending round tight corners. Check out the trailer above for more details.

Here’s a preview of the Willow Swallows you’ll learn to make:

How do I prepare my willow for weaving?

For this course you will be using brown willow, which is willow in its natural state with the bark still on. 

To make it pliable for weaving you will need to soak it for three days in the soaking bag provided with the kit. 

That might sound like a lot but it's extremely easy - all you do is put the willow in the bag, fill it with water and leave it outside on the ground (full instructions are included in the course).

Brown willow is essential for this project because the bark will protect your bird feeder from the elements.

But we also now offer brown willow courses because we've found that it's actually easier for beginners to work with. It's more flexible and it never snaps when you're weaving it.

If you've never used brown willow before it's an absolute must!

What else do I need?

We design all our courses so that they require absolutely minimal tools. To do this course you will need: 

  • A pair of snippers
  • An old screwdriver to help make gaps in the weave
  • Some string
  • A tape measure

That’s it!
