I had all these cute ideas for Valentine's Day, darn moving put a damper on my plans. But, I did manage to get a few things done. My Valentine tree is one of them. It's easy to find twigs when you are surrounded by trees. The new house will be more challenging.
This is a simple project and all you will need is a vase, moss, twigs and whatever you choose as ornaments. I choose glitter hearts. You know that glitter gets me every time. It's all about the bling-bling.
I went and collected some twigs out of the yard and cut them to the size I wanted. This will depend how big and how much you want sticking out of your vase.
Sorry about the messy background. This is what happens when you have to craft on your kitchen table. Can you say "YAY" for the new craft room I will have.
After I got the twigs in the vase at the right height. I glued some moss at the top of the vase to fill in the open space and hold the twigs from moving around. It gives it a grassy feel, don't you think?
If you ever played with moss you know how messy this stuff is, and I mean messy!!!
Now just add your ornaments and you have a beautiful Valentine Tree!
It's a quick, simple and easy way to dress up your table for Valentine's Day!!
Don't forget you can catch me over at The Taylor-House every Sunday...Come see last weeks project in case you missed it.
Make sure you stop on over and say, "Hi". Stay awhile and check out Chrissy's fantastic little place in blogland!!
Have a CRAZY BEAUTIFUL week!!
Please come vote for me!! Pretty Please!!!
Love this, and I especially love the moss! Cute, cute!!
ReplyDeleteHopping over here from For Love of Cupcakes. What a cute idea and so simple!
ReplyDeleteFollowing from the frugal crafty blog hop. Such a simple, yet elegant idea. I might have to suggest this for my Church's youth sweetheart dinner. cheermamadrama.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try this, but I was thinking maybe colored marbles in the vase instead of moss. What do you think? Thanks for linking up with the Messy Moms Messy Monday! I'm your newest follower.

So cute! I never decorate or do much for Valentine's day! My bday and my husband's are within a week of each other....and just before Valentine's day. So by the time we've celebrated both the bdays we let it slide on by. Maybe I need to make something like this! ;)
