DIY Valentine's Day Branch Tree

When I'm decorating for the holidays I like decor that's a bit natural and a lot whimsical so I decided to try out a Valentine's version of a Scandinavian Christmas branch tree like Tina's version (seen here) and I love how it turned out. It was super simple to make, just took a bit of time so binge watch The Bachelor and get down to business!

Materials with links: 

• Various shades of pink and red papers. I added in some pink vellum and glitter paper.

• white spray paint
• clip on birds
• Heart punch

Steps:

1. Spray paint the branches white and let it dry.
2. Follow the instructions here to make the 3D paper hearts 
3. Make a hook on the edge by tying the end of it.
4. Put the dry branches in a vase and spread them out. 
5. Hang the hearts from the branches
6. Clip the birds from the branches.
