Recycling Tree Limbs Craft

Remember last fall when I showed you a fall craft made from a tree limb!
If you don't, here is a link to it.
Well, I didn't show you a picture of it, but I also decorated it for winter.


I have stripped it down again. . .



. . . and now I am going to decorate it for Summer.


Gather up whatever you can find. I chose flowers, moss, tiny clay pots and birds. I already had these supplies in my very messy and can't walk through craft/laundry room.

Here it is partially decorated.

I used a glue gun to attach the items with. I even decided to place the bird house that I got at a yard sale last week at the base of it.


Here is a picture of it finished.
You can click on it to see a closer view of it.




I love the little yellow hummingbird I suspended in mid air.
It looks like it is about to suck nectar from the purple flower.





And here is a picture of the base of the limb where I have the bird house and the tiny clay pots with a small flower placed in their opening.





Now that I've given you the idea again, go find and old dead tree out in the woods and cut you off a length of it and make you something pretty out of it.

How's that for recycling?

Hope you enjoyed my little project.
