Christmas Twig Decor 2021 ~ DIY Christmas Decorations ~ Simple Twig Decor ~ Christmas 2021

[@dixiehurley3599]

when my two children were still very little their Father walked out and left us all . He left me penniless and left for another woman . consequently i had nothing for giving my children a Christmas with that year . But , a neighbor gave me a lot of fabric an threw an needles an pins . so i went out an found a huge huge tumble weed spray painted it white , stuck it in a flower pot , then made hand made hand sewn ornaments for it from fabrics , hung them on it , even had some striped fabric i made stuffed candy canes out of an hung them on the tumble weed too , an then hand made my children several toys an wrapped them for them to open just in plain brown butcher paper . i’m now sixty eight my daughter is now forty seven , my son forty six and both tell me every year at Christmas that this was one of the most memorable and happy Christmases they have ever had in their lives . My daughter also says this is because of what i did for them . life often does hurt an is devastating , but with a God we do not have to let it totally defeat us .

Mary,Mary,Mary, I just marvel at your ingenuity and thought process. So clever and simple but always so beautiful, and I think why can’t I think of something like that?

[@mermaidrocksoapcompany6540]

I agree. I aspire to be such a hard working, selfless and purposeful woman. You are an inspiration Mary. We feel the love you put in what you share with us. Thank you.❤

It definitely helps that she has a gorgeous home to showcase everything

[@cynthiafisher9907]

@@Katt560 And the motivation of having to make videos! But she is gifted as well.

[@bluecurlygirl]

Well said. I was just thinking the same thing. Always amazes me with her brilliant ideas and beautiful creations.

[@sandrarivera8374]

Lol, me too! Nothing pops into my brain!😭🤣😂

[@elainereynolds9532]

All are NICE...... But I LOVE THE FIRST ONE, THE TWIG TREE WITH THE AIR CLAY STAR......

[@lindachapman9765]

You allways bring the best ideas, i love all of them, including pussycat having a play with the branches xx

[@7gloryf]

Thanks for the branch tree. Those were our Christmas trees! My dad would cut a mesquite branch. My mom made thick soap and cover the branches. We's made chain garland glued with diluted flour; and that were our trees!! Thanks for bringing back those memories!

[@joycegilkey3677]

I really miss walking in the woods, picking up nature's treasures. You are blessed to live where you are. I like your natural decor ideas.

[@robinaanstey3734]

I love those twig trees..natural is always best. Don't forget to forage a nest or make one from your twigs to put on your Christmas tree. A bird nest is a symbol of the home, it reminds us that we strive to make a place where our family can grow and prosper. Considered to be a good luck symbol, the bird represents all of the love, warmth, enthusiasm & commitment required in creating the happiest of homes.

[@alb9549]

Funny you mention a nest… I actually found a nest in our Christmas tree last year. The cutest thing. Although I didn’t keep it. The tree ended up getting a lot of tiny bugs on it so we had to get rid of it ASAP. Wish I could share the photo I took of it. 🌲

[@robinaanstey3734]

@@alb9549 That's too bad that you got rid of it. You can always put the nests in your oven on a very low temp for an hour or so. It will kill of any bugs and help preserve the nest. Next time :-)

[@WakeUpAndCraft]

Love the idea of the bird's nest! 🥰

[@brendadesch4010]

Mary round are so smart. I would but a twig tree from you. Just beautiful and rustic.

[@Bre-nr8hg]

I don't mind the rustic look. I too love to walk through the forest ( or bush as I like to call it) looking for twigs that I could use in some sort of arrangement. When I was a little girl we (my cousins, friends) used to make play houses in the bush. We loved our "houses" and would play out all day. Sometimes we'd go and "borrow" from another girls house lol . Such great memories I have of by gone days. So much more simpler back then.

[@summersez1673]

That simple little twig tree in the crock is absolutely beautiful and made me smile. I believe I will try to find my own. Thank you for the inspiration Mary. You are always a blessing.

[@lonnyflath6126]

Hallo Mary, Du zauberst aus den einfachsten Dingen die schönsten Sachen. Ich schaue deinen Kanal schon recht lange. Ich bin immer wieder begeistert ! Ganz liebe Grüsse aus Deutschland und eine entspannte Vorweihnachtszeit ! 🙋‍♀️🌲🎅🌟🕯☕👍👍👍👍👍

[@debweissler7808]

How clever! Who needs Hobby Lobby & Michael’s?!? Lol Trader Joe’s was charging a fortune for white birch branches. Your bare branch trees fit in perfectly with my Danish Mod decor.

[@helenablignaut662]

I just loved that last one. There's something so profound about the little dried branch with the gold ornaments. I could do a whole sermon about it 😊

[@pamelagay3303]

That dried branch holiday decor is lovely. Enjoying more videos from you. From me your local Amish Country subscriber.

[@nancycowan6109]

Well, I couldn’t admire you more. That cat house is so loving of you. Thank you. And please, more rambling through your woods. Reminds me of my childhood. ❤️

[@bjohnson1149]

You are so creative and fun. I love watching all your videos. Thank you for providing the little house for stray cats. You have such a tender heart. I'm glad you can now enjoy your Christmas trees. They are beautiful.

[@mariesmith.3578]

Love love your calming spirit I'm. 87 and wish I had your energy stay well❤❤❤

[@CraftyAccents]

Mary, I love the little twig tree! It is rustic, but with the addition of the bulbs, and that gorgeous crock, it took it a level up to elegant! Love love love!

[@debbyjohnson7635]

Oh Mary, you always amaze me!! You take something so simple and make it just beautiful! Merry Christmas to you and your family! 🌲🌲

[@ginacervi]

I love simple natural organic non -commercial Christmas ideas. Perfectly Peaceful to get us through The hectic holidays. Thank you for sharing.

[@Mjj-216]

Love the forest window❣️🌲❣️

[@Grabfma040508]

I made all my front porch and stairs decorations myself this year. I am blessed to have pine tress and a huge weeping willow tree in my yard . Made a garland all down the banister, tying it to it . . Put in red netting made into Rosettes flowers with green ribbons . I live where it rains a lot . An added bonus is water droplets on the netting look like diamonds . I made a branch ladder and decorated it with homemade “hat gnomes .. Then I got going on Pinterest and made a branch tree and made a lot of different twig small ornaments . Thanks to you I am now making the twig tree . I hot glued the center tall branch on a wooded block . The hot glue turned white and it looks like snow ! I have to wait for the rain to stop so I can gather the twig branches and finish . I plan on mixing white glue and shaving cream to make fake snow on the tree . Thanks for sharing your ideas . Merry Christmas 🎅🏽

[@RobinThiering]

Would love to see it

[@Squabetty]

I adore the twig tree! I love the simple, nature based themes of your style. Classic and serene. And I can’t help but think there is an extra note of gratefulness and appreciation when we use natural items.

[@oldstuffbethtx8052]

Your little twig tree reminds me of Charlie Brown’s tree! Very cute.

[@deepestanio4625]

I love the rustic ! Thanks Mary!

[@kmarch6630]

You are definitely spoiling us! I love all the videos lately. I've gotten away from all the crafting I used to do. You've inspired me to get the glue gun out and get busy!

[@karenross3457]

! have six of those little houses for the outdoor cat colony we have adopted. I placed a brick in each to weigh down from the wind. It is very kind of you to look out for them.

[@lindadaley7469]

I also love rambling around the woods looking for boughs and branches to put in my planters on the door steps. There is something so peaceful about it.

[@conniebyrd3232]

I love the first twig tree best. thanks for sharing .

[@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123]

I know the feeling of finding the “perfect” branch, if I can’t find it on my property I drive the back roads and go hunting 🤷🏼‍♀️ Here in northern Minnesota we have a lot of Paperbirch and those branches make a beautiful tree and we also have red willow which is a long slender red branch, those two things are my favorite 😍

[@bugil1216]

I'm in Minnesota too, Central

[@joymartin1493]

Simple beauty the best. My favorite

[@jodyyounger4569]

Mn girl, also 🙌

[@kathybuchanan9470]

I've brought in "twigs" and made tree-scapes that actually came alive from the warm house, sprouted and bloomed flowers. One year I had pollen everywhere from white birch trees. Hahaha it was glorious 🤣 Merry Christmas and thank you!

[@BrokeGirlAesthetic]

Oh goodness Mary, that twig tree with the jewelry beads is just gorgeous! I will definitely go foraging in my yard for twigs to try it out. The forest on the window is beautiful too. As you were walking about, I was thinking of how I miss Ohio in the fall, that's the time I loved best there with the leaves changing color. I really love that lilac tree too! Thanks for sharing these 🤗

[@rbirkheimer59]

Thank You for the best Christmas treat anyone could have. And as a bonus........no calories:)) Everything is so beautiful! I just cut my hydranga blooms to add to my Christmas tree. I dearly love the stick trees on the window. Now I can make one with my sticks!! I love when you are out and about. I love the woods. I 'm pretty close to just living in them like you do. Bless you for having a place for the kitty cats. Bless all creatures great and small. OHIO

[@janh519]

Mary, you are amazing! I also like the simple decorations but I no longer live where I can get them in the woods. Also, I’m a year past my mid-seventies. I still LOVE watching you decorate with the beautiful things you find “out back”! They’re lovely and can definitely be used long past the holidays!

[@glojk4315]

I liked them all, but the first little twig tree was so cute.

[@kellysquires2017]

The little tree is perfectly imperfect! I love it so much. I loved it all! Thank you Mary! You are So unique, creative and magical!

[@charlotted6247]

I've never imagined twigs being so beautiful!!!! You are certainly one of a kind!!! God Bless you Mary. 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

[@yasmingreger6653]

Really beautiful all of them , and when you think it's just a branch. Nature is so beautiful and gives us things but does not take anything from us. A nice cosy Christmas is my wish for you all. Thanks for all the work this year. Keep safe bless you God. Bye from Germany.

[@23matei]

Hi, Mary! You are like a medicine for my depression . I appreciate very much your work & imagination ! Bravo !!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@maggiemae8041]

I loved the walk in the woods searching for a twig tree... so many wonderful memories came back of walking the woods looking for twigs for my mom to make a twig tree at Christmas. She loved decorating from nature, too...

All 3 projects were perfect. Your home, and property are a little piece of heaven. Thank you for sharing.

[@jeannineboyce3957]

Just beautiful Mary! Love, love!

[@lzrd8460]

I really like the branch trees. I find much larger branches and bring one in. I decorate it with all my home made decorations. I don’t really have the room for a proper fur tree & as I live alone, the branch tree ( my friend calls it my Charlie Brown tree’) is just perfect for me.

[@connieh.4689]

These are in my top 10 "Mary" diy projects!! Definitely making all three, I don't have the glass, but I have canvases. A little paint for background....

Came upon your video while browsing. I also love bringing the outside in for decor. Especially since moving to a 2.6 acre lot with over an acre of trees in rural Ohio I now have more “material” to pick from. Thank you for the beautiful ideas!

LOVE bringing in twigs and limbs, leaves, branches...to create a holiday atmosphere...loved everything you created using things from the "great outdoors."

[@pamelasprings6723]

I love how you used things from nature and your property. I once decorated my granddaughters wedding with gathered willow branches that I spray painted white, added glitter then lined them up on a stage with lights. They looked beautiful.

Love these decorations Mary..🌲🇨🇦❤️

[@coinkydink3984]

When my children were little we had very little for Christmas, so one year we got a branch and decorated it with yarn and some of their toys, gum wrappers and popcorn strings. I still have some of the drawings of snowmen that they made... they are in their fifties now.

[@cathywilson6964]

Love the twig trees!… this is my style completely 🌲🌿🎄

[@alicejump2290]

Absolutely loved all projects, twig trees and hydrangea stick trees! Your story about childhood twig trees reminded me of our Florida pine trees, grandpa and I went out in woods and chopped down one! They are not great looking trees, but my grandmother used “love magic” to turn it into a tinsel , fans and cornucopia Victorian tree! I truly thought it was elf magic! Blessed and safe days!
