How to wall-mount a wooden piece?

Submitted by CatEquivalent6289 t3_11als56 in DIY

I found this beautiful branch and kept it in room temperature and dried it. It is somewhat brittle and non-uniform shaped.

At the moment it is just hanging from the wall with strong yarn, but it is not optimal since the yarns look little ugly. I would like to install some kind of mount without making any holes.

Any suggestions for the wall-mount? Should I treat it with something also?

The branch looks kind of like this https://www.amazon.in/Artificial-Plastic-Branches-Ornament-Decoration/dp/B07NWNKJL9 (mine is real of course)

Thanks!

Use a few strategically placed nail/screws in the wall to create a cradle that the branch rests in

Agreed. Like a shelf made out of nails for it to sit on.

Fishing line to a wall hook maybe?

As a child, one of the Xmas decorations that got brought out ever year was a bare branch that had been spray painted a bronze color. It had been trimmed so it would hang with one side pretty much flat to the wall, with (I think) three points of contact. My Dad had put pucture frame doodads into the branch at those points, and there were picture hooks on the wall. When the season was over, there was a framed picture that hung from one hook, and which covered the others.
