14 Days of Love- Glitter Branches/ Lovebird Tree
Supplies:
*Assorted branches from your yard
*Watered down craft glue or modge podge
*Very fine glitter
*Paintbrush
How to:
Water down your glue to where it is a good loose consistancy, but not too runny. Paint glue on tree branch a little bit at a time and sprinkle glitter on glue tapping to remove excess. I put newspaper down on my table and poured a nice sized pile of glitter on the newspaper. I think it is easier to pinch the glitter in my fingers and sprinkle on the branch instead of shaking the glitter bottle over the branch. This is such a simple craft, but it is really messy. I’m still finding glitter on my skin. But, these branches make such cute decorations, they’re worth being a little parkly for a day or two. I was originally planning on cutting a piece of wood for a base to make a “tree”, but I ended up putting two branches in one of my favorite vases and I glued my “Love Birds” from yesterdays post to the branches for an extra cute centerpiece. Oh the wonderful things you can do with glitter!
How sweet! I love the little kissing birds. Very creative.

Your tree so cute! That little dog laying there is precious.
Thanks Cathy! That’s my mom’s dog Lily, she’s our mop dog, and quite a good little model 🙂
