Raffia & Sisal
Raffia has always been a firm favourite with crafters, raffia enables them to create simple designs using raffia alone, or add a little extra touch to a finished work because it is so easy to work with and very economical, so no need to skimp when using it - this of course is a very important factor when it is being used for children's craft projects. A simple wire wreath ring completely covered in raffia and finished off with a ribbon bow could be made in a matter of minutes and look very effective. Very young children can probably manage to make a simple plaited raffia napkin rings or friendship bracelet.
