BLOOM Moss Decor

Sometimes the simplest projects end up being my absolute favorite.  I wanted a little craft to add to my rustic ladder that hangs on the living room wall, so I thought of a word that’s reminiscent of summer – BLOOM.  It’s so stinkin’ easy y’all.  Let me show you how to make this BLOOM Moss Decor.

I usually do my crafts inside, in my craft room, but something drew me outdoors for this one.  Maybe it was the weather, or the fact that I was working with moss which reminded me of grass.  Whatever it was, I’m so glad I did it because I enjoyed the quietness of the afternoon and I’m in love with my pictures for this project, too!

Ok, let’s get crafty!

Here’s what you need to make these yourself:

• Papier mache letters
• SuperMoss peel-and-stick moss sheets
• Faux flowers
• Scissors

First, open up a sheet of moss and flip it upside down.  Lay the letters onto the sheet and cut around them – not perfectly, though. You need excess to fold over the edges.

The first sheet was almost enough to cover the front and sides of each letter.  I didn’t worry about the backside since I won’t see it.

To cover the bare spots, just use the second sheet of peel-and-stick moss, then cut strips until you cover all the exposed papier mache.

And BAM!  In the five years I’ve been blogging, I think this might be my most favorite picture ever.  It just makes me happy!

So there you have it – my BLOOM Moss Decor.  Oh, and if you want to see it on my rustic ladder, here you go:

What word would you make with the moss decor?  This peel-and-stick stuff is magic, and I might have to find some other stuff to cover with moss!
