stems of beads and fake berries

After: The beauty of birds and flowering branches is brought inside using silk materials. The bench is softened and lightened with a cushion and pillows.

Steps:

1. Put together three branches plus a couple stems of beads or berries and secure them with a piece of bark-covered wire a couple inches up from the bottom.
2. Place the birds where desired and glue them into place.
3. Disguise the wire with a ribbon or raffia bow. Attach the items to the railing using brown pipe cleaners in two or three spots to keep it from sliding down or falling to one side.
