I love Spring.
Is there anybody who doesnt love Spring?
From the budding trees to the chirping birds, Spring brings about a renewed excitement and energy.
A time to start fresh, get active and create!
I dont know if its just me but those little pine cones look a lot like eggs.
The thought of a bird perched over her eggs inspired this DIY wall art project.
And the best thing about our rustic wall hanging is that is was super quick and easy to make.
The cones could in fact be left au-natural, which would also make for a beautiful wall decor idea.
Using a small paint brush begin to apply the paint to the underside of the pine cones.
I painted one side of each pine cone and then set it down to dry.
I returned later to finish painting the other side.
In the meantime, prepare your branch for hanging on the wall.
Cut two long strands of twine and tie one to each end of the branch.
The twine will be used to fasten to any standard wall hooks.
Cut off any excess twine.
Secure the birdie on top of the branch.
Actually, even without the pine cones this looks like a beautiful rustic wall decor idea!
Once the painted pine cones are dry, tie the fishing line to the top of the pine cone.
With the other end of the fishing line, tie it to the branch.
Cut all loose hanging ends.
We hung eight on ours.
