Sounds great! Thank you!!!Buy some seagrass rope and cut strips of it.
Thanks for the suggestion! It's a good one but in Chicago we don't have weeping willows, unfortunately. Something about how huge the roots get makes them not a tree that can be planted here. There may be some in the suburbs but then I wouldn't know which have been have been sprayed.Fresh weeping willow that isn't sprayed. Put the whole frond/s in bathtub of warm water. Let it soaked 20 minutes. You can braid them together add pear hook.
Great suggestions! Thank you! I'm going to try the seagrass rope first and if that doesn't interest him I'll give those a shot. Appreciate your input!Dried banana leaf
Organic corn husks
Dried grass bundles (Sherbie used to like them)
Palm leaf
Coconut fibers? (Don't know if he'd like stripping that off coconuts or not)
Darn! All sold out! I think that would've been a good option too. Thank you!
Interesting! I'll have to look those up. Thank you!Bamboo leaves that we fresh cut. Not branches but may be fun.
That's a good idea too. I would imagine those would be very similar to the twigs the wild Quakers were building with. Good idea too, thanks!I don't know how safe it is, but something I used to do is take vine balls and unravel them, take the individual pieces and soak them in hot water. After they became pliable, I would take them out, braid them (or whatever it was I needed them for) and let them dry out really well.
Again, not sure how safe it is but I thought I'd mention it, I've been thinking about doing that again, I could see a lot of uses for it.
Oh! Wonderful! Thank you so much! Which size is thinner? 1/8" or 3/16"?
Yes, unfortunately, he had no interest because they don't bend easily. Thanks for thinking of it thoughThere´s lots of great suggestions here
Has Blu ever had paper straws?
Another terrific idea! Thanks so much everyone!!!Hemp cord must be perfect for this. Light weight and bendable, natural and organic.
1/8" is thinnerOh! Wonderful! Thank you so much! Which size is thinner? 1/8" or 3/16"?
Thank you very much! Math is my worst subject. I guess I'll just order both so he can decide1/8" is thinner

check again, maybe high traffic made a glitch.
