Create a beautiful, eco-friendly Swift for your garden or home.


Join local expert Belinda Martin at the Seaton Wetlands Reed Base to craft a beautiful swift made from willow. Your beautiful handmade willow decoration can be placed in your garden ready to welcome back the swifts as they return from migration in the spring.

Craft your garden ornament measuring 30cm, using dolly weave and random weaving techniques.

Hot drinks and biscuits are included, along with all materials, tools, and expert guidance. Please bring your own packed lunch.

Suitable for all abilities.
