I’ve been having so much fun this week. Christmas crafts and décor are spread throughout my home right now and I have so much fun stuff to share with you in the coming weeks. Today I’ve got a fun craft… a String Art Christmas Tree.
String Art Christmas Tree
My brainstorming started when I found this cool piece of wood that had great texture and grain, then I used a Christmas tree coloring page for the Christmas tree design.
I hammered nails in at the ends of the boughs and then pulled off the paper.
A silver paint pen painted on the tops of every other nail head added some festive flare!
I loved the alternating gold/bronze nail tops with the silver nail tops. They look like Christmas ornaments to me!
It took me a few tries to figure out which pattern I wanted to use to “string” the tree.
I decided to go with top to bottom and center and out to each tip… trying to replicate a bough. I found this cool green twine at Dollar Tree last year… score!
And ended up with this cute string art tree… which I’m kind of loving.
