Those are some lovely baskets. They are amazing little builders! :rolleyes::xflove:

I wish I could hire them to build some architecture models... my weaving never looked half as nice.

Thanks everyone! I'm sure Blu would be so proud (or angry, lol) to know that you are all so impressed with his hard work.

That little house is so cute! Did you make that, @fashionfobie ?

I have made many many models :) I have also built full scale products and cabinets... however.. no ordinary cabinets.. more artsy and esoteric. That particular project in the photo was a two person team. So we shared the work about 50/50 and I can't take all the credit. My friend and collaborator is pretty Epic! We were pretty happy with how the little cabin model came out. The most fun was gathering the willow twigs from the site. The proposal was to encourage using materials on site for the build. It was for a little camping cabin.. they do not have any electricity or anything.. Just a place to sleep. If you ever go camping in Danmark you can find them on your hikes and sleep there.

He's on a roll with a new project and we've converted to more eco friendly materials

*notice the stink eye he's giving me. He gets very territorial once the nest becomes cave like. We'll see how long I can keep it up without too much blood shed.

It's very impressive. He looks as if he is very proud of his handiwork.

Very impressive!

And he looks like he absolutely would fight you if you try to disturb his handiwork!

He's been so mean for the past couple of days. Not only is he possessive of the nest but he also comes over to the couch when I'm minding my own business and attacks whenever he feels the need. This thing is not going to stay up too long, unfortunately.

I took down all his hard work this morning. He's just been completely obsessed from the minute he wakes up till the minute before bed. Not eating much at all and being somewhat of a jerk. So since my friend was over I had him hold Blu in the living room while I demolished his masterpiece. When he came back to his room he inspected for a minute but didn't seem to care too much. Now he's eating nicely. Back to the drawing board again :)
