How Do You Make A Manzanita Tree Sculpture?
This is a great piece to make as a decorative object for your home, and it also makes a great gift on a special occasion. These are also very popular at weddings when used as a “wish tree” and guests can write special notes to the happy couple. This is a style that looks incredibly high-end and chic, but is relatively inexpensive to create. The sculpture can be made in a variety of sizes from a small branch of maybe 2 to 4 feet tall! The best part about this “floral” sculpture is that it’s dried and will last as long as you keep it around. Step 1 Buy the manzanita branch. You should be able to get one at a craft store or you can ask your local florist if they may be able to get you one. It is a dried branch, usually with a reddish tone and very curved offshoot branches. They also come bleached and are a very soft tan/beige color. Step 2 Decide whether or not to paint the branch. You don’t have to paint it, but many times these look great sprayed black, gold, silver or even burgundy. Th
