I love the grass armchair. I could make that. The kits don't seem to be available but I reckon I could make one just based on the photo of the kit on the website.

Great way of using all the cardboard that we get from packaging

I am going to buy a pack of cards to make a maquette of the armchair before scaling it up to a full sized template from all the ply we have left over from knocking the old sheep shed down.

Then I can use the template to make the cardboard firms from cardboard packaging as it comes in.

It would be so cool to have these in a circle for communal eating in the summer and dotted around the orchard too.
