I've never used raffia before and have a few orphans that will require some major bending.
The technique will be to wrap the selected trunk/branch. Wrap with the jute/raffia, bend (2) pieces of appropriate wire on the sides of the bend and wrap with an outer layer of jute/raffia. Bend. Cool?
I have a surplus of jute twine. I soaked it for a couple hours in a bath of warm water. It was pretty supple. (Did I just use the word supple?!!)
I saw where someone used bicycle innertubes, but was concerned with the moisture in the wrap.
