Beachy Christmas Tree Branches
4 Materials
I wanted to make some lighted branches for my beachy hall bath to bring some spread the Holiday Cheer even further into the house.
There's no room for even a small tree, so the idea had made it's way to the back of my mind, while other Holiday going ons proceeded.
I was in a box store one day and happened to see the little wire lights that are out this year and had a brainstorm or maybe a brain drizzle.
Being on a budget, this is what I came up with.

Here are a few of the items you'll need, I had most already on hand.
A couple coats of white paint came next.
I picked up a clear vase that had kind of a wave pattern to it, to keep with the beach theme, at the Dollar Store.
I wrapped the top with jute to break up the plain coloring.
I added a shell from my broad collection - from Miami to Kodiak - to the jute on the front.
I used shells that already had holes in them for ornaments, along with other beach combed items.
I added some aqua glass icicles to add a bit of color.
It puts out a pretty good amount of light for 18 tiny bulbs.
