Although I love classic red and green decorations for Christmas, I was ready to branch out (hah) and try something different in my bedroom this year. In addition to the purple tinsel tree that lights up my window, I hung this simple piece above my bed. Best part, it only cost me two dollars.
What you'll need:
A large branch
Embroidery floss
Ornaments (these were from the dollar store)
Scissors
A hook
What you do:
Tie loop of embroidery floss on top of branch to form hanger. I used two separate color strands for added strength.
I found it easiest to hang up the branch while I was tying the ornaments on, so that I could see how the different lengths looked together.
Tie ornaments at varying lengths with floss. Trim excess.
I kept my mine pretty simple, but I'm sure you could have loads of fun adding silk flowers, glitter, and paint!
Happy Holidays!

Beautiful in its rustic-y quaint simplicity. Very much my tastes.
