Pruning your trees? Save a couple of small branches to make this fun woodland-inspired vase from Natural Home. You can cover a recycled can with wooden discs and spend no money on this project. These would be fun decor for an outdoor party, or a nice way to bring the outdoors inside your home. [click here for project instructions] [via OPT]

Project Estimate:

Several small branches from trees or bushes, ranging from ½ to 1½ inches in diameter, on hand
Terra cotta pots, old vases or recycled tin cans, on hand
Glue, on hand
Coarse sandpaper, on hand

Total: FREE

This is so cute! You could probably make these for craft fairs and sell them all day long. Adorable.
