Begin the construction of the nest with barked wire. Shape a six-foot length of barked wire into a twelve-inch diameter circle, wrapping the wire on itself. This circle is the rim of your nest.

Cut four twenty-inch lengths of barked wire and fasten these to the nest rim like spokes of a wheel allowing a two to three inch depression in the center. Wrap the wire tightly at each crossing to hold the wires firmly in place.

When you are finished, you will have a rough frame similar to the picture. Your design bowl will easily fit in place.
