//graphic branch earring holder TUTORIAL//

introducing the brand new tutorial by me....

oh yeah. that's right. i finally got around to making you lovely people a tutorial. :) It's my vintage inspired graphic branch/twig earring holder! It's very useful and pretty if i do say so myself!

anyways... no more blabbing... on to the tutorial~

supplies:

• a dead branch/twigs {make sure they're small enough your earrings fit on them.}
• acrylic paints in desired colors {you want about 3-5 colors}
• a paintbrush
• small yarn/thread. embroidery floss would work.

start with your twig. {i only have my largest one in this picture... i used three but any amount can be used.}

mix your paints and start painting it in bands of differing size. leave spaces between some bands and overlap others.

it's up to you... but i think that leaving some branch showing here and there looks better than completely covering it in paint.

paint all your twigs

 take your string and tie it to the branches keeping them level. remember to leave enough space between them for your earrings to hang.

hang on your wall and put your earrings on it!
