At the Metrolina Expo in Charlotte, N.C., host Ralph Kovel meets a willow builder who makes twig furniture out of willow branches. Learn about this centuries-old tradition, and see some interesting creations.

Twig furniture came from Europe and was brought to the United States in the late 1700s.

This twig chair sells for $250.

Here's a loveseat priced at $350.

An original and unique twig table is tagged at $850.

Twig birdhouses run from $15 to $30.
