Spotted: Beautiful Driftwood Flowers

by Becky Striepe April 20, 2014, 7:00 am

Have you come across any driftwood or other fallen wood in your travels? Turn it into gorgeous painted flowers!

Alisa Burke made her driftwood flowers to add a little bit of color throughout her home, and they came out beautifully! My favorite part about this project is that it’s not only gorgeous, but it’s a stash-buster. She didn’t buy anything new to make these lovely flowers. Instead, Burke dipped into her crafty stash for a little DIY decor without the crafty impact.

Here’s what you need to make your own driftwood flowers:

driftwood or other salvaged wood pieces
old paint – Use paint that’s about to run out.
paintbrushes – Choose brushes that are on their last legs.
drill and drill bit
wood glue
