In some cases, it utilizes something that will go to waste; is far more environmentally friendly since it does not use materials which are massed produced and massed transported; it provides an excellent way to exercise in the fresh air. I am sold! PS. Other than using gasoline to get to and from the source of the wattles, it is free! I especially love that part!

I could listen to you explain this all day. Your voice is soothing. Like listening to a kind mentor patiently explaining things to me.

You are welcome! Yes, good old fashioned stuff!

Absolutely beautiful. I love sticks; hurdles, teepees in my garden. Natural, sculptural, environmentally friendly and a fine way of using garden scraps. I have seen pictures of herbs bordered with woven sticks like these and also square 'baskets' attached to the ground surrounding lush patches of violet flowers.

It came out beautiful. Looks like a big birds nest. I also love your birdbath it’s beautiful.🦋

What a simple yet beautiful way to protect your plants. You have given very easy to follow directions and I plan to try this in my own garden. Deborah. North Carolina 😊😊❤❤

I love it! I love all your wattle fences and natural wood creations!

👏👏👏 Absolutely not the different shades of wood gives a beautiful look and is PERFECT .. I used to think we need a specific type of wood/ sticks to weave then in. Am glad I saw how it done. Thank you

Beautiful! So glad KZread recommended your channel today!

You can also use rehydrated willow boughs as they will not shrink and break. I also use a similar technique to make rhubarb guards. This keeps the leaves off the ground and discourages slugs.

I've been wanting to do a project like this for years. Every year I cut back the trees on our property, and while I use the leaves for mulch, I also keep the sticks. The little wattle fence is very cute, and adds a rustic and historical feel to your garden. I was most excited to see the trellis you have next to the place you were soaking the sticks. Store-bought trellises are so expensive, and I love the natural look. I'll be back to check out more of your projects.

Great idea! And the different coloured sticks is perfect - a forest isn't only one colour of bark! You're a charming presenter. Must be wonderful to sit and have a coffee with you - in your lovely garden. Blessings.

I love your naturaly woven retainers and private screenings.

Mulberry trees are incredibly invasive in the right conditions,and their yellow tap root runs deep. In early spring i go over my property with a fine tooth comb,removing unwanted saplings. If i find a pecan or hickory sapling,i will dig it up and plant it in a large pot with potatoes around the roots. This feeds the sapling,giving it sustenance,and moisture. Eventually the saplings can be sold or planted in a desirable place or wood lot.

Right point, John. That mulberry found its way into my property, probably from with the help of birds and every year after the berries fall down, I go around and take all the young saplings, just like you!

Absolutely gorgeous

Just beautiful!! Thank you for teaching us!

I love and will try it as I have lots of sticks in my yard.

Perfect

So inspiring. I have ugly dog fences surrounding all my gardens- would love to little by little replace them with wattle. Only problem is, the trees we have most in the desert are mesquite, and they have gnarly thorns. Will be looking around the forests for other trees to use.

What a beautiful landscape idea I’m going to try that . Love it

Beautiful work. A good excuse to plant yourself an American Hazelnut or even a Willow like the Salix purpurea so you have a steady supply of material for your wattle needs! I recommend looking into willow basketry and hedge laying to see how they use the long rods to make a rope-like edge treatment that really binds all the vertical pieces together and adds a bit of pizazz to the finished fence. If you opt for the hazelnut (Corylus americana) you also get the benefit of good nuts to eat! Throughout Europe, the hazel and willow coppices are an ancient tradition because they grow fast and produce much needed wood for projects all around the homestead. Wattle fencing is just one example, and I love seeing you bring a little bit of that to your garden.

Thank you for your wonderful advice. I already thought about planting Salix purpurea, but can't find any place in my garden for it, unfortunately. And European tradition of using wood in the homestead is just wonderful! Happy gardening!

@@OlgaCarmody Alas, I'm in the same spot regarding the willow. Nobody in all the state grows it for basketry and such, so I thought I'd grow it myself. But where? Such are the trials and tribulations of the gardener! For inspiration, you might like Abell's channel. He cultivates Hazel and others woods, and uses them to build some of the nicest screens you could ask for. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pKyu2s-gfbS6lag.html I'll look forward to seeing what you get up to next.

This is a great demo! Thank you for the info. I've wanted to do this for years, now I'm ready!

I would love to get different colors of willow to weave the wattle. That would look gorgeous when dried!

You made this look very possible. I love the look.

This is something I’ve been wanting to do for so long and for the first time, because of how you’ve explained this, I believe I can do this immediately. Thanks so much for sharing! I love seeing your other weaved wood fencing too- so cool!

Beautiful! I love these fences! I wish I had somewhere I could gather this type of wood.

I t's a great idea!! Looks so nice!!

This is brilliant! The algorithm gods put this video in my feed this morning-for weeks I’ve been mulling how to add a pole with bird feeders in my front yard, but protect it from all the neighborhood cats-I think a wattle fence could do nicely! And I even have a beautiful willow tree that sheds, so an unending supply of branches. 😊 I love your garden. Thank you so much. Subscribed!

Very pretty. Love your videos.

I have muscadine vines that need pruning. Those would be perfect for this project.

I have wanted to do this for so long, I trim oak trees and always feel sad for what I cut off but now I will do this as a new project added to my To Do DIY List...you make it look so easy. I am working on an arbor/trellis as well and will add this technique to that too!

Lovely

Love it! I collect my sapling sticks to use too, but not to this extent...excited to expand my craft. btw - I really like the color variation of the different woods!

Very well done. Great project! Liked and Subbed.

This is lovely, thank you for showing the process of making it, and examples from your landscape. Especially your tall fence, so inspiring! And why would anyone criticize the different colors of wattle? I think it is charming at all the stages, freshly cut and then sun dried to the grey!

I don't have a good source of willow but I do have grape vines. I think this winter I'm going to take your lead when I prune my grapes. Thank you.

I’m going to do this in front of a very large Empress Wu hosta! There was a tree giving shade but it died over the last few years, leaving the hosta in sun-it’s just too big for me to dig & move. This wattle looks doable!

What a great idea. I have a wooded area that means I can get enough wood from my water willows .

Thank you!

I agree with the lady who commented on your voice! I always wondered how the wattle fence was made. I think they are beautiful. Sometimes, I have seen these fences on TV shows or movies. They are very earthy looking. Any idea how long they can last?

I love this and would like to save the video for reference. Will you please add that function so it can be saved? Thank you!

Turned out so pretty! Also what is the tree that is growing on the decorated wall next to the house where you stored your sticks in the tub of water

Madremia Ce, que bien explicado... pero tanta inversion necesita una agricultura ecologicam

Garden cupcake… haha… yes it will look exactly like that. 😊

I want to build raised beds to grow vegetables, fruits and herbs. I really dislike the use of lumber. Do you think that a wattle fence lined with metal netting on the inside will work? I want it 12” tall and plan to fill the bottom 5” with straw/hay and fill with compost and composted manure. I know that I will be replenishing the contents each year. If I need to augment the wattle fencing, it wouldn’t be a problem. Labor intensive, but not an issue. 😊

Do the koi have protective areas from sun & predators ?
