Making Nature Weaving Looms with the Blueberry Students…

In the spirit of our gardening project with Blueberry last year, we’ve picked up where we left off with the Blueberry students… Using our cardboard weaving looms, we carefully selected leaves, twigs, snippets of herb from our garden to carefully curate our own nature weaves.

To Make Nature Looms:

Take your square of cardboard, around 6 inches by 6, and cut snippets in each side every inch from the top. Then take your string or twine and wrap around the cardboard square, make sure you wrap them tight otherwise you’ll make a very loose nature loom!
