Spanish Moss Spring Wreath

Pensando en Primavera=Wishing Spring was Here Today!

Hola Amigos! Snow is in the forecast for tomorrow but I'm ready for Spring now! So here is my first Spring Wreath of the Season. I'm sure that by the time Spring is officially here, it will be tweaked once or twice. You know how it it...add this, take that...change the bow.

I felt the urge of doing something "Springy" today, maybe the first symptoms of Cabin Fever, ...I didn't have to go out and get a single thing. Everything was shopped for and put together in my basement, which was a good thing because this is probably the messiest wreath in history! The Spanish Moss ends up everywhere like fuzzy dust!
A vine wreath, an old twig nest,  regular green moss, Spanish moss and speckled Easter eggs came together to make this natural looking cutie.


I will change the ribbon for sure and perhaps add a bird too. But for now I think it will do!

Outside it goes, because it's too messy for indoors...besides perhaps a real bird will fall in love with it and call it home.

Thanks for visiting today friends, even though this is going to be a snowy weekend...I'm looking forward to the next few weeks because Spring will be knocking at our front door "for real" soon!


Besitos,
Lizy
