Twig/Rustic Christmas Tree


I often collect twigs during my walks outside, hoping I will use it in some of my projects. So, here I was with some twigs and wondering what I could make. Then a wonderful idea struck my mind to make some twigs Christmas trees. But I was not the only one who had this wonderful idea. After I made this tree, I searched online and it seems like the twig Christmas tree is in style and there are different versions of these trees that you can make.



Here is my version.


I arranged the twigs to look like a tree. When I was happy with the arrangement, then I tied the twigs with the twine, making knots in between the twigs so they are spaced a little. 

You can also glue the sticks on a cardboard paper and frame it to make the Christmas tree art. But I tied a little loop at the top to hang these as ornaments in our Christmas tree. 


Check this dried sticks or twig wreath that I made some time back.

  7. Love your twig projects! I think I might be able to do a little tree like yours, but would make it from driftwood I have picked up on the beach. The twig wreath I'm sure I could make from the zillions of twigs that wind up in our yard. I'll look at them with a new eye now! Thanks for sharing--I saw your link on A Stroll Thru Life.

  8. Fabulous! I love all crafts using materials from the great outdoors. There's so much inspiration from nature. We also finished our version of a Christmas tree using driftwood this past Fall and it's definitely one of my favourites!

  16. I love the idea! I frequently look for leaves, I'll have to add twigs to the list. I had to get rid of some birch branches several months ago, I wish I had seen this idea before that.
