Now lets see what can be done with live tree branches. Here they are in a large metal container on the fireplace hearth. This could go anywhere, by the front door, or outside the door on your porch. You could use anything as well, a decorative small trash can, a large basket, even a toy box container such as the wicker ones, pots used this spring and summer for your plants would work as well.
Here are branches just laying on my outdoor table, no need in it just sitting there empty all winter when I can decorate it for free with tree branches.
I decorated with live branches as well on the front porch in this large lantern that I had. I put branches, lights, and some decorative strands of beads in it.
Many of you have these baskets or a basket like this, why not put some branches in it as well and then put ornaments on top. That's an easy decor for your table or counter top as well and can be moved easily. I ran out of branches so I gotta go cut some more.
Take a walk and you will find lots of items to decorate with. If your looking for red berries Ive been known for the past few years to visit a certain abandoned house on Gender Rd across from the fire station at the corner of Gender and Groveport Rd that has red berry branches that are perfect for decorating with. Not that I'm telling anyone to trespass I'm just mentioning where there are beautiful live red berry branches that no one is using or will miss. My sister trespassed the first year for me you gotta love a sister that is willing to get in trouble in the name of decor.
