17. Cardboard Raven Perches
Bring a touch of Edgar Allan Poe’s gothic romanticism into your home with eerie black ravens perched on cardboard branches. Cut out detailed silhouettes of ravens from thick black cardboard, using a white gel pen to lightly sketch in feather details and a glinting, intelligent eye. Next, cut out long, twisted, gnarled tree branches from brown cardboard, layering them for a 3D effect. Mount the branches to your walls using removable adhesive strips, and glue the ravens along the limbs, creating a dark, atmospheric display that looks incredibly artistic and sophisticated.
