7) Respect and love for your dried tree, continue loving this and keep this as a part of your life by hand painting this.
How to paint trees and sections tips-
1) Select a branch that has many tiny branches coming out.  Choose branches that have self forms or abstract intriguing shapes.

3) Oil or acrylic paints usually a primer is required as base.

Ornaments are decorative objects, shiny one, fancy garden ornaments or stuffed animals that can be placed strategically to give a beautiful appearance to your garden design. They also act as a binding element in the whole garden design landscape of green and colorful flowers. Especially where rats and sparrows and pigeons love, zinnias, chrysanthemums and china roses.
