Weaving Bird Feeders: Crafting with Natural Materials in Bielefeld
In this practical seminar at the Biological Station, an individual bird feeder is created from one-year-old willow branches. The woven structure resembles a airy cone, offers various entrance holes, and includes a perch as well as a hook for a tree or balcony.
Natural Craftsmanship and Creative Event Experience
Under the guidance of Petra Franke, participants learn how to create a functional bird feeder from flexible willow branches. The integrated plate holds the bird feed and turns the piece into a practical contribution to the home garden or balcony.
What to Bring for the Practical Seminar
For the event planning, a sharp pocket knife, a pruning shear, work clothes, and personal refreshments should be planned. A terracotta plate with a diameter of 15 to 18 centimeters can be brought along or purchased at the beginning of the course. The participation fee is 35 euros, plus about 15 euros for weaving material and possibly the cost of the terracotta plate.
