I was super excited to receive my 39” Battery Operated Natural Branch Bunch in the mail recently and I opened it right away! I was not let down at all. This branch is gorgeous, and as the name suggests, it is a real, natural branch wrapped in beautiful warm white LED lights. The light string is brown, so it blends in with the branches.
I added the branches to my white crackle vase, mixed in some fall silk flowers and turned on the battery pack to see how it looked. Nothing short of amazing!

The branch bunch uses 3 AA batteries, and the battery pack comes with an on/off switch. What I liked about this product was that the battery pack has a longer cord so I can keep the battery pack outside of the vase, or wrap it around the branches and keep it hidden within the vase. This makes it easy to ‘hid’ the battery pack behind the vase, but still keep the on/off switch accessible. By the way, I used our White Crackle Ceramic Vase, which works really well, especially since the branches are very tall and the battery pack fits nicely inside.
I did, however, find two downsides to my natural LED branch. One is that the branches are very delicate, because they are real. While placing my branches in the flower arrangement, I was careless and broke off a few of the smaller branches. You have to be delicate with this little beauty to keep it looking its best. So if there are little hands around the house, be sure to keep the branches out of their reach. The other thing I noticed is that the plastic zip ties they use to attach the LED light string to the branches is white, and honestly, I wish they Image may be NSFW.

would have used a brown or tan color to blend it in a little better. But the zip ties are small and it is hard to really notice them.
If you had these branches, or if you do, what would you do with them? Add them to flowers or do they look good on their own? Let us know in the comments below.
