Natural holiday decorations are popular, and they spotlight the beauty of nature, even in the winter landscape. When you look closely at these holiday decorations, they look fairly simple to make. Some of them are!
Here is an easy craft that you can most likely make with things you already have at home.
Materials:
5 branches, cut to approximately equal length (my branches were about 2 feet long and 1/2 inch in diameter).
twine
scissors
optional: acrylic craft paint
Directions:
Trim branches to like size.
Arrange into s start shape, moving and adjusting branches until you like the arrangement.
Cut ten – 1 foot lengths of twine. Tie each vertex of the start with twine, letting ends hang loose.
After start shape has been set with twine, go back to each length and wrap it around the intersecting branches, tying a knot to secure.
Optional: Dab paint on branches to color; or add glitter, or colorful yarn wraps to decorate.
Hang or prop your star to show your handiwork!
