Branch and yarn wall art

Home & Garden Completed Projects
1

I started this project the other day but I didn’t know what it was going to be. we have a pond out back of our house that has beavers living in it and so there is an abundance of sticks around. So the other day I took a couple of the cooler looking ones, cleaned them up, and sanded them sort of smooth. then I put some spray on veneer on them.
I didn’t know what I was going to do with them exactly but they were interesting looking. then yesterday I got the urge to make a wall hanging with yarn. After some starts and stops due to fighting with the cat, this is what I came up with. very happy with it overall.

I used two skeins of yarn that blends from navy blue to gray in a gradient pattern and I cream kinda fluffier yarn.

The yarn colors are sooo beautiful!! The blues and grays mix beautifully!!

thanks they are one of the yarns that change color as you knit so I kinda cheated, but it worked out well.

It’s really pretty! I always like the look of beaver sticks - I have some up on the wall holding swap prayer flags.

Reminds me of one of those incredible flapper dresses, very neat-o.

with the number of sticks around, I am thinking it should be a regular thing in my art. :smiley:

Firstly, it’s really cool that you have beavers :grinning: and secondly, I really love your design with the contrast in textures :grin:
