DIY: A Tree Branch Jewelry Stand
The branches trend came onto the design scene almost two years ago, and it's still kicking. Su Casa member ckim8120, who is often inspired by nature, put her own spin on the trend by making a jewelry stand out of a tree branch she found outdoors. The only supplies the DIY requires are a tree branch, white spray paint, and newspaper.
Steal of the Day: Viva Terra Bark Candlesticks
The tree-branch trend may be giving way to birch and other motifs, but I still appreciate a lovely tree-inspired accent. Especially one that's sleek and metallic rather than brown and burly; even better if it's on sale.
If you're knot ready to give up the tree trend just yet, snap up these Viva Terra Recycled Aluminum Bark Candlesticks ($89, marked down from $179).

Exclusive to the store, this floor lamp adds a hint of nature to your home without screaming trendy.

Trend Alert: Branches, Branches Everywhere
I've been loving the branches look for a while now, and only recently realized that I hadn't featured it in a trend alert.

Are you enjoying this trend as much as I am, or are you starting to think it's a little played out?
Found It! Michelle Branch's Rug
I haven't seen much of songstress Michelle Branch these days. But the Union Jack bathroom rug in her recently listed Nashville property is a familiar face. Although the lady is an Arizona native, she was named after the Beatles song "Michelle," which in my mind gives her ample right to adorn her home with a Brit flag.
