Design DIY: Painted sticks and antlers

Painted sticks and antlers, a very cool way to take a piece of nature and turn it into art for your home. This DIY reminds me of an Indian Summer. 
 Gorgeous bright painted sticks and branches to be displayed in your home. Follow these simple steps in the DIY and you will be on your way to creating art.
With just a few supplies and a little imagination you can create custom art pieces.


DIY materials needed: Antlers or sticks and branches, painters tape, acrylic paint, gold spray paint, paint brushes, puffy paint.

Step 1: Wipe off the antlers or branches so that they are free of dirt and dust.

Step 2: Tape off sections to create stripes.
 Step 3: Paint with a paint brush or spray paint.
Step 4: Add design with puffy paint for a refined look.
Step 5: remove tape and paint empty space or leave and let dry.

Step 6: Hang on the wall or display on a bookshelf. You could even use the antlers as a jewelery holder.
