Birch bark is a versatile natural material that has been used for millennia to create both practical and decorative crafts, but it remains popular due to its sustainability, and ubiquity. Using the amazing properties and unique aesthetic expression of birch bark, discover the basics of bark crafting—everything from where and when to find the best material in the forest to how to pick and store it. You'll learn traditional birch bark crafting techniques such as weaving and braiding, but also more-modern and unconventional techniques such as birch bark origami.

In this useful and informative volume, you'll find 14 bark craft projects with complete step-by-step instructions, photographs, and helpful diagrams. You'll make practical and beautiful bark pieces using weaving, joining, and folding techniques:

baskets
handbags
backpacks
wallets
accessory cases
lampshades
beads for jewelry
and more!

A must-have for any crafter who wants to branch out into exploring the fascinating world of crafting with bark!
