Can't wait for Spring?
Here's an easy way to create your own!
You'll need:
A tree branch, 1 1/4" braid or fabric (this beautiful trim was a gift from Jenny F., belonging to her mother), scissors, green waxed floral tape, glue gun, glue sticks, additional flowers (optional).
The Method:
cut braid or fabric into pieces around 2 1/2"
Fold over braid, as shown above. Wrap around floral tape.
Then twist the bottoms.
You can also add flowers, by rolling up petals and securing with floral tape.
Using glue gun, glue bud to branch, keep adding buds in the places you think nature would bloom.
Enjoy the process.
Secure in vase, add some moss and voilà you have a faux branch of cherry blossoms, tout suite! Very soon now here on the East Coast, blossoms will be blooming in real time!

P.s. I used pink, but imagine every color in the rainbow all on one branch! Wouldn't that be a fun twist!!
