This is just the kind of thing I imagine having fun with, if I had the wild space to do so.
The construction methods are simple, but sturdy.
All I'd need are a couple of pillows and a glass if wine and I could spend an afternoon right here.

Now, that looks like fun! Yes, big fluffy pillows and a book in there would suit me just fine.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't that be great!?
DeleteI love that it is work in progress, waiting on twigs and branches to become available, as nature hands them over. That could take a few years and make for a wonderful journey. If only you took a selfi sitting in it I would get a better sense of it's size.
ReplyDeleteHa! I never think of selfies, but that would have been a good idea.
DeleteCould turn the finished product into a Hugocultur. Add some soil and mulch and plant it up then it could be a hidden sanctuary. Lots of fun and a great way to use prunings.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I had to look that one up.
DeleteCool idea -- Who doesn't like making forts? But I hope you also like spiders, because those twig walls look like prime web zones. :)
ReplyDeleteI've come to terms with spiders.
DeleteWhat a neat idea. It immediately had me wondering where I could put something like that. I thought about my half-wild back slope - and then the fire ants came to mind. So much for that!
ReplyDeleteFire ants = bad news
DeleteBrilliant idea. I am guessing as gardeners they are OK with bugs and critters that may join them in this little retreat.
ReplyDeleteI think you're right.
DeleteThe stone is a nice contrast with the woven branches and green tangle of grass, but here in wildfire country the Fire Authority would send a notice to clear it. Climate matters...
ReplyDeleteAh the advantages of being on an island surrounded by water and with a low water table too...
DeleteHmmm....me likee. Getting ideas, thinking of where to put such a cool feature. Thanks, Loree!
ReplyDeleteOh you guys would have so much fun building one of these!
