ArizonaRealCountry.com 35 August 2018 1 Driftwood Bookends Bundles Achieve total desert vibe by cutting 10 pieces of wood in half and assembling the pieces — flat end down — to form a set of coordinated bookends. Hot glue will be strong enough to hold these light pieces of wood together, but when grouped, they’re heavy enough to hold your reads upright.

You can either route into the cut end with a keyhole bit or predrill a narrow hole, saw the head off of a nail, and use adhesive to secure the cut nail into the desert wood. Add these hooks to your entryway for decoration and as a replacement for a traditional coat hook. 3 Frame a Mirror in Desert Wood A collection of branches big and small can be mounted to a large frame. Opt for a strong adhesive to bond the branches to one another (make sure it’s a weather-proof adhesive if the frame will be installed outdoors), but rely on hot glue to pin it in position while the stronger adhesive cures. 2 Create a Wood Clock Did you find a big piece of wood hiking in the desert? It might be the perfect piece for a homemade clock. Purchase a clock hardware kit at a craft store with a thread long enough to extend through the driftwood and assemble a one-of-a- kind timepiece in minutes. Bonus points if you collected enough rocks on your trip to assemble the clock numerals!
