Most traditions will suggest oak, willow, or ash wood, however, if you resonate with another tree then use a branch from that particular tree. While it’s best to use deadfall, some trees will donate a branch if you are obtaining it gratefully and respectfully without harming the tree.

Brigid's Cross and Crafts for Imbolc Including Kids Crafts

Image
DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING BRIGID'S CROSS I have seen some very elaborate and beautifully woven Brigid's Crosses. I think each year it's a new time for making a new Brigid's Cross don't you agree?  I wanted a project easy enough for young children. These directions require only pipe cleaners and string. You can get pipe cleaners in any craft store and they come in a wonderful assortment of colors so you can let your little artists be as creative as they want! Step 1 - Make a bundle with 6 pipe cleaners and bend them in half. Tie the ends all together with a piece of string. Step 2 - Lay the pipe cleaner bundle on the table in a vertical position, with the tied end on the top. Step 3- Make a second bundle, again using 6 pipe cleaners, and bend them in half. Step 4- Before you tie the ends this time though, slip it through the middle of the other bundle so that they're linked. Step 5 - Now tie the ends and lay this second bundle down in a horizontal posi...
