The bears we made for the We’re Going on a Bear Hunt trail have now gone into hibernation, and we are thinking back to the river installation that we also created for the event. Our textiles team fabricated these tree wraps and hanging ribbon decorations (using thousands of metres of ribbon!) and spent a few days up trees installing the wraps at @kewgardens and @wakehurst_kew They battled some varying weather conditions, but in such a stunning venue who can complain??
