Prep Time30 minutes
Active Time1 hour
Total Time1 hour 30 minutes

Equipment

  • Scissors

Materials

  • 4 straight branches to create a loom
  • Twine, string, or yarn
  • Natural materials such as flowers, leaves, weeds, feathers, herbs, and other pretty plant material.

Instructions

  • Create a loom frame by lashing four sticks around the same width at the corners to make a rectangular shape.
  • Next, wrap the twine from one side to the other close together to create the weft. Make sure to go around the end branches twice for added support.
  • Start weaving stems from flowers and other gathered materials.
  • Continue to fill the loom with all your nature materials until you like the way it looks.
  • Tie a small loop with the twine to the top of the nature loom in the back to use as a hanger.
  • Hang your final product and enjoy.

Notes

Note: No warp is necessary in this weaving project.
As the plant material dries, it will shrink. This is a good time to add more if you like to keep the nature weaving together and looking good.
