Rustic Art for Little or No Cost!

What could you use the cardboard from a pizza, sticks from a bush or tree and toilet paper rolls for? Well art of coarse! I combined a few crafty ideas from other sites to come up with my own expression of hanging art.
First I gathered as many straight twigs as I could find. Then cut them different lengths with a repeating pattern in mind.
I hot glued them to a pizza cardboard with a hole cut out of the middle. I dry arrange them first to get the pattern I wanted.
Now the fun begins!
I picked the colors I wanted then started spraying it in a circular manor until I got the look I wanted. Your imagination is the limit to the design, no right or wrong to it!
Now for step two. I added some glitter glue dots to it ,just because. All up to you.
Step three I cut up paper. towel rolls.
I made a flower design by hot gluing the pieces together, love my hot glue gun!
Made a tree-D effect by placing a smaller version of the flower on top of the bigger one, again your choice.
Before gluing them together I sprayed painted them. Almost done!
I glued the paper roll flower design to the middle of the stick design and there you have it, wall art!
Have fun!

      @Betty Fannin You could try that. If the paper flower does't hold up to the moisture just make another!
