Make a Christmas wreath



Make a Christmas wreath for the birds and hang it in the garden or on the balcony.
 
 

Making one couldn’t be simpler;

  • Thread monkey nuts onto a length of flexible garden wire.
  • Bend the wire into a circle and twist the ends together, leaving one end slightly longer - make this into a loop from which to hang the wreath.
  • Using raffia or kitchen string tie a small bunch of seed heads (e.g. teasel) and/or berries to the top of the wreath.
  • Hang the wreath somewhere safe from cats.
