  • A necessity in autumn when the European wasps are about. They love drinks, imagine accidentally swallowing one if them!

  • What a great idea and if you make them bigger they can cover the bowls to stop the bugs so easy to make would be great for our outside meals also use heavier beads around the edges to stop them blowing off.


    • Exactly. A fun project that has a great practical use. Thanks.
