Another easy MOSS covered DIY- A Cross and Vase

                                                                



                                                                  Get your glue gun out !

                  I have one last MOSS covered project to share for spring on this GOOD FRIDAY !


                   I am sorry if you are tired of the MOSS,  it seems to be my theme this season.

I found this wood cross at the .99 cent Store.
 

The moss was from Dollar Tree.
 

 

But

 

you could cut a cross from cardboard or foam board.

 

I painted the back green, just to give it a finished look.

 

I hot glued a POP TOP from a soda can to the back as a hanger.

 

 

Next , start to cover with moss.

 

Trim with scissors. I added a bit of jute across the center.

 

You may want to add flowers tucked into the jute.

 

 

I decided to hang on a mirror, using a piece of wire.

 

 

I'm not sure if I like the flowers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The other idea was to cover a Tin can with MOSS to use as a vase.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Clean can, and remove label.

 

Run a bead of hot glue over the edge to protect you from the sharp top of the can.

 

Lay on its' side and cover with MOSS.

 

Be very careful ! The can will heat up from the glue.

 

You don't need to put moss on the under side.

 

The can will not leak !

 

 

 Both projects used less than 1/2 of a bag of moss.

 

I decided to wrap with jute then filled with water and added fresh flowers from my yard.

 

This makes a pretty spring container.

    

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay, no more decorating for SPRING !    I need to clean my house !

 

I have company coming and I can't wait.

 

I hope you have a wonderful Easter with family and friends !
