1 STACKS OF STICKS
To make the most of the multitude of affordances that sticks offer, you’ll need plenty of them, and of every size and shape you can find. Curate a collection: alder, ash and hazel trees are a wonderful source of straight, smooth, long sticks, and are perfect for coppicing – in other words, harvesting sticks will encourage the tree to grow more.
Large hardwood branches might be harder to source, but after an autumn gale, head to your local park with some secateurs and loppers.
Store your sticks safely – check out Pinterest for creative storage ideas.
