A big thanks to Hoosier Homemade for planning this! You can find a ton of Homemade Holiday Inspiration here. But first, let me share with you how to make this fun string art!
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 nailhead added some festive flair!
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.
Now here are some other great Christmas decor ideas to inspire you!
