Hello lovelies!  I hope you all had a great weekend.  Today for our 18 Days Series we have a wonderful project put together by Cori of Cori Kindred.  Here’s more from Cori on the simple how-tos for creating this fun Holiday decoration:

—————–

This little holiday display has pretty much everything I love in it: lush moss, a pretty vintage dish, lovely vintage paper and a tiny little fawn.  Plus it’s super easy and ridiculously cute!

Here’s what you’ll need:

• A bowl or dish
• Small block of floral foam
• Knife
• Glue (I like to use clear caulk)
• Scissors
• Moss (I used supermoss preserved sheet moss purchased at joann fabrics)
• Wire or toothpick
• Label (vintage or handmade)
• Little animal (I have vintage fawns for sale in my mushroom & moss vintage etsy shop)

Step 1: cut a block of floral foam that goes just a little bit higher than the dish you’re using:

Step 2:  cut down the edges and cut little wedges to fill in the gaps.  glue foam pieces together and to the dish:

Step 3: cut out a square of moss a little bigger than your dish.  apply glue to the top of the foam.  while pressing the moss to the foam cut the moss a tiny bit smaller than the dish, and press down.  fill in any gaps with little pieces of moss:

Step 4: type or write on your label, and glue to the wire.  insert it into the moss and add your tiny animal.  yay!  so cute:
