Window decoration for the summer - flowers in a birch tree trunk
Summer is the perfect time of year to bring fresh, vibrant decorations into our homes. A particularly charming idea to bring nature into the home is a DIY window decoration with summer flowers. These hanging window decorations combine country house style with the elegance of blooming summer flowers to create an enchanting atmosphere. In this blog post, we'll show you how you can make your own beautiful window decorations with simple tools and a little creativity. Let yourself be inspired and discover how you can bring summer into your home in a particularly natural and stylish way.
Required materials:
- 2 birch trunks (1.20 m)
- Test tubes (10 pieces)
- Household rubber band (10 pieces)
- Flowers (e.g. craspedia, carnations, snapdragons and thistles)
- Drawstring ribbon
Summer window decorations to hang - we'll show you how:
Step 1: Connect the birch trunks
Place the two birch trunks together and connect them by tying the household rubber band twice around them. Make sure that the trunks are firmly and securely connected so that the construction is stable and the flowers with the test tubes in them can hold up well later.
Step 2: Clamp the test tubes in between
Clamp the test tubes between the household rubber band. Tip: Make sure that there is not too much pressure so that the test tubes do not burst.
Step 3: Attach the suspension
Take the drawstring and tie it around the outer ends of the birch trunks so that you can hang the construction. Make sure that the knots are tight and secure so that the decoration hangs stably later.
Step 4: Decorate test tubes with flowers
Fill the test tubes with water and cut the fresh flowers. Then arrange the flowers in the test tubes and make sure that they are evenly distributed and stand out well.
Done!
Bring a breath of fresh air and natural elegance into your home with this charming summer decoration. The combination of the birch trunk and colourful flowers creates a unique atmosphere that is particularly effective in the kitchen or on a large window.
To make your window decoration even more individual, you can combine different types of flowers and colours. Try seasonal flowers in particular to keep the decoration fresh and varied. For example, delicate grasses or small twigs arranged between the flowers could be a nice addition.
The hanging can also be varied: Use coloured ribbons or ropes to create additional accents. For a particularly harmonious overall look, you can match the colours of the ribbons to the flowers. Another option for individualisation is the use of decorative pendants or small lights that you can hang between the test tubes. This way, your window decoration will also be an eye-catcher in the evening.
With a little creativity and a willingness to experiment, you can adapt this DIY idea perfectly to your own style and the respective season. Have fun making and designing your own unique window decoration for the summer!
