While looking for a natural element to add to my Christmas decorating, there really wasn’t anything that I liked or wasn’t expensive. That’s when I decided to DIY Decorative Branches for Home Décor, with my own components.
This project took very little time and the results are just what this area needed.
I thought you might like to use this tutorial, too.
What you will need:
*several branches, at any length that is best for you
*a pair of clippers, to clip branches off a tree
*white spray paint
*decorative bowl filler (I bought mine at Hobby Lobby)
*hot glue gun
*hot glue sticks
My branches are between 3-4 feet long.
Just my luck, a tree was being cut down in my apartment complex. I spied the branches and asked the maintenance worker if I could have a few. He looked at me kind of funny, smiled and said that I could.
Once I brought them back to my apartment, I was ready to spray paint them white.
My thought was to add a layer of texture in the dining area next to the Christmas tree.
After the paint was dry, I wanted to add a little bit of glimmer, like I did here and here.
Choosing to just use the gold filler balls, was the best choice for this project.
With my hot glue gun I attached the filler balls to various spots on each branch.
There is no rhyme or specific space to each ball. Just where I thought it looked good. Some are closer than others. And others further apart.
All in all I loved the outcome. They look great at Christmastime and throughout every season.
These DIY Decorative Branches for Home Décor could not be easier!
