During the first training day with Linette, there was a gentleman there who made Bonsai trees. They looked spectacular! So nothing being off limits, I decided to have a go. I soon realised that I needed a lot more wire strands than I had cut and of course, I had to use a variety of colours (Magpie again!). I had a couple of goes with the following results. Here’s the first one. I also had fun with the roots!

Here we have the second one, using other colours of wire. I still need a lot more strands, will my hands have the strength to twist them? I’ll need to have a go. Just one more tree to show you under this heading, although I did make it with beads.

Just one more tree to show you under this heading, although I did make it with beads, and mounted it onto a lovely piece of wood
