How To Use Branches To Decorate Your Dining Table
There are simple ways you can decorate your interior space and use greenery around you to add life to it. For some time, I wanted to add greenery to my space but found it difficult. As it has very limited daylight and not enough air circulation. Then I was inspired by Athena Calderone to add natural branches to my vase. So, I started looking in my backyard for a sculptural branch and found the branch of Lote tree (Sidr) to be perfect.

Branch Selection
When selecting a branch make sure you choose a sculptural branch and not a straight one, so you can play with the arrangement later. In addition to this, make sure to choose your branch from the excessive area of the tree which needs trimming anyway, and cut it in a 45 degree to prevent any damage.
Branch Arrangement
After you finish placing these branches take a 360 view to make sure they look good. Then, fill your vase with water because these branches are thirsty after trimming and it will help to keep them looking fresh (something I forgot to do because I was busy taking pictures!)
Dining Table Styling
Add them in a space that needs scale and volume to balance the overall look. Also, make sure you choose a tree that’s relevant to your space and style.
