festive chair decor an (almost) tutorial

Add this to the pile of leftover glittery leaves, vines and such I had from making my tree-topper a few weeks ago, and I knew I wanted to do something other than store them until next year.

And, I just knew I wanted to make some festive chair decor for my dining room chairs. These were so, so easy, and hardly justify a tutorial. Basically, I collected my scraps and hot glued pieces together until I got a look that I wanted. All six are different, and used leftover twigs, branches, glittery bits, pinecones and even a bird in a nest.

Here is one completed…

And here are all six. The entire process took about 20 minutes, tops.

Then, I choose a red gingham ribbon from my (large, ever-growing, much-loved) ribbon stash. And tied each to my chairs with a simple square knot. I love how these turned out, and I especially love the fact that they cost me practically nothing.
