Weaving Materials


Willow

There is an extra shipping fee for willow - over size package - extra handling for length / packaging. This extra cost can be as much as a pound of willow, itself. This is a UPS charge - not ours. This charge will NOT show up on the shopping cart shipping. Lengths of willow rods may vary with each new shipment.
approx. 3 - 5 ft. rods - 1 lb. bundles

Available in:

  • Buff - beautiful rust color results from boiling and peeling.
  • Green - rods  are  dried with the bark on.  Greenish hue.
  • Steamed Brown - rich dark brown - currently 3' rods in stock
  • White - white color resulting from peeling the rods.
