And together with therefore concluding calendar week I saw Amanda's pretty organisation together with it sealed the bargain for me.


I followed her proffer of using hot gum to affix a foam brick to the bottom together with and therefore covered it amongst spanish moss together with a mixture of several other mosses that I had on hand.  I chose the same pinkish-purple orchids from Hobby Lobby together with stuck them in.


I liked it, merely I felt similar it was yet missing something...leaves.  HL didn't bring anything fifty-fifty unopen to looking similar an orchid leaf, merely I industrial plant life these at Michael's together with they were perfect.


They had 5 leaves, therefore I clipped the floral record apart together with split them into 2 smaller sections.  I also divided the "roots" together with wrapped them dorsum together amongst the leaves using a slice of wire. 


I added an abandoned bird's nest from the yard...

 

and the stems were a piffling flimsy therefore I used a wooden skewer tied amongst a slice of raffia to back upwards them.
 

And then, I liked the result.


Using sales together with coupons the full for the flowers together with leaves came inwards at roughly $20 (I already had the moss together with shell).  Not bad considering the terms of i existent orchid, together with I mean value this simulated organisation is quite convincing. 


You larn a piffling sneak peek at my novel lamps amongst the Ikea Jara shade, too.  I'll present yous those on Monday.  

If you're looking for an persuasion for a Spring arrangement, something similar this would last pretty inwards whatever vessel... a vintage trophy loving cup or H2O ice bucket, an erstwhile dough bowl, a pewter serving piece, a classic slice of bluish together with white pottery, a pretty slice of milk glass, or fifty-fifty an interesting basket. 

I promise yous all bring such a happy weekend!  The Expedit is assembled together with placed inwards Caleb's room, therefore I'll last working to pose it inwards lodge this weekend.  And, we're going dorsum together with forth betwixt soccer together with baseball game games.  Good times!  I tin never give thank yous you plenty for next along amongst me!
