Making Woodland Crafts

Making Woodland Crafts: Using Green Sticks, Rods, Poles, Beads and String

Patrick Harrison (author)

Making Woodland Crafts is an art work in its own right. It provides the basic knowledge and skills to complete a range of both simple and more advanced craft projects, from functional structures to creative outdoor play forms. Youll learn to choose and work your wood effectively, use simple tools, tie knots and develop your own designs to make masks and puppets, night torches and staffs, arrows, jewellery, ladders, shelters, chairs for stargazing and much more.

As well as an experienced outdoor learning practitioner and trainer of Forest School Leaders, Patrick Harrison is an accomplished illustrator. The ideas and drawings collated in this book were developed over several years while working and playing with both adults and children in woodlands throughout the UK. With a genuine passion and skill for inspiring love and respect for the natural world, this book is intended to be the first in a series devoted to various aspects of woodland crafts.
