Hi, I’m Susan…I
write and create at
I’m the mother of
4 girls and I’ve been married to my husband Jim for 20 years. I’m a full
time teacher with one of the world’s best jobs. Currently I work in the
school library teaching classes to children in the primary grades. It’s my
job to read to young children every day and teach them about some amazing
authors and illustrators.
Today I am going to share with you gals a twist from a Christmas project–making it all Springy.
Enjoy!
Mossy Chicken wire
Cone
This summertime cone is in the
spirit of the
cones I made for the tree at
Christmas.
I started with a cone
made of card stock…
see it in there…
I used the brown paper bag
color…
Then I covered the card stock with sheet
moss…
I used glue dots, they hold really
well…
Next I wrapped the whole cone in chicken
wire.
(wear gloves! Ouch!)
I added a ribbon and some
embellishments…
And the product is a beautiful mossy
cone to fill
with flowers and hang in your
window…
I have another blog
I’ve always enjoyed crafting and decorating. I
like to sew, make jewelry and do projects around the house. I’m always up
for learning new things and I enjoy teaching what I know to others. I’m
energized by working on my blog, I love creating and teaching others. My
favorite is thrifting and turning junky finds into something spectacular!
Recently I’ve opened up my Etsy shop:
Stop by and have a look!
Take a look through my site at
homeroad.
I hope you like it and can take away some
inspiration from me.
Susan
