For the Love of...Branches! Artful Friday Finds

I remember on summer days running around in the park. The smell of fresh grass, the sun shining bright, and collapsing out of breath for a break under a tree and looking up at the sky.. and oh the branches! I loved to stare up at them so intricately intertwined and creating mesmerizing patterns, and full of life, daydreaming away.

Today's Artful Friday Finds are dedicated to the amazing artists I've discovered on Etsy who have expressed their artistic voice with elements of branches. Each piece is so unique and breathtaking, resonating strong emotions ~ which one speaks to you?
