String Art Christmas Tree

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.

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.
