This would be quite easy to achieve and great if you've got kids, they'd have a great time in there !
I'd be tempted to grow Clematis through it too, i think that'd look lovely !

It is Rhodea, Its loosely aimed at kids exploring nature and generally getting out and about and having fun. I love it......... Lol :~))

If you go back, could you take some side-on shots please Digger? :~}
I like that description Sandra, need to remember it!!

Ian_digs_v2

I can do Hatter, as you know we go there quite a lot. Do you want structural shots ie: how its made?
I don't think it should be straight and organized Sandra, 'organic' is much better. :~))

Madperth

Yes please! I need pointers on how to weave it!
Thanks!
