DIY Project: Waxed Paper Magnolia Branch By: Grace Bonney

Design*Sponge | DIY Project: Waxed Paper Magnolia Branch

Magnolias are one of my favorite flowers. When magnolia trees are at their peak they’re stunning, but before you know it, they’re gone. With a just a bit of paper and patience, you can enjoy branches of magnolias all year! This quirky version of the flower combines dyed, sculpted paper and a real branch. A finishing dip in hot paraffin wax gives the petals a dewy, lifelike texture. This is a great way to dress up your entryway or dining table without having to change the water every week. -Elise Dee
