Pick branches that don't have sap on them. Ideally ones with no bark like the driftwood you can find at the beach works really well.
Make sure you sterlize anything before putting it in your tank. The easiest way i have found to do this is wrap the wood in tinfoil and cook it in the oven on say...350degrees...for about 10-15 minutes. This should kill anything thats on there.
