Have you been down to the woods today

Sue and Ros have a go at making hobby-horses

Socks and buttons are transformed into a head

The Trowbridge garden on a baking hot Saturday

A hive of craft activity

Have you been down to the woods today

… and turn it into a quirky walking stick handle!

It’s amazing what you can do with a few bits of wood

Take one gnarly rootball…

Have you been down to the woods today

And anyone can have a go at carving a walking stick

The saw-horse is handy for the larger bits of wood

But we’re happy to work on a small scale as well

At the community event on September 5th the Woodlands Group stall looks stunning

Hmm, a great shaker for January’s Wassail!

Have you been down to the woods today

Walking sticks and hobby-horses go down well But we can turn our hands to pretty much anything

Beth puts some finishing touches to the jewellery tree So people can wear a piece of woodland!
