Hi. Both of those look okay as far as I can tell. Did you know you can use branches you can forage for? Just avoid any from trees with sap or odor, like pine, eucalyptus, etc. You just need to give them a bath with some soapy water (I like using Dawn dish soap) and a very thorough rinse and they’re good to go. I even leave lichen on mine. Some of the branches from craft stores (specifically Michael’s) have been found to have little wood boring insects living in them, so be warned.
