Twig Basket Table Decoration

 

I blew up a balloon and covered it in cling film before I started dipping twigs into powertex and placing them on the balloon.

I completed it in stages until I was happy with the way it formed.

I left it about 3 days to dry solid before I deflated the balloon.

I coloured it with red and gold pigments.

I picked up this small bag of pot pourri just because of the colours.

I also used a kitchen roll tube to create a cup in the bottom to hold a led waxed candle and added half of the bag of potpourri.

And here it is in the semi dark with the candle turned on.

And finally in full darkness with the candle on.
