DIY Dried Natural Easter Nest
Nests are spring’s intricate masterpiece, the female bird being the architect. Somehow she crafts twigs, grass, leaves, and other found trimmings, weaving them together with such attention and detail to provide a sturdy base for cradling her most precious treasure.
As you saw last week, we migrated three tables using different color palettes from the feathers of birds. This week, we will show you how to handcraft your own nest, using dried naturals, creating a perfect addition to your tablescape, mantel, or kitchen counter. It would also make a lovely basket filled with Easter goodies to gift someone special.

This simple sun-catching ornament will elevate your Summer Porch. An effortless craft for kids of all ages, easily made outside to enjoy the fabulous weather. We love how the sunlight hits the tulle and illuminates the dried naturals, hung in front of string lights provides the summer nights a warm glow for late-night conversations.
Peeps have been an Easter icon since around the 40’s when it used to take around 27 hours to make one tray, and special ordering was the only way to obtain them. With the rise of machinery in the 50’s, creation time was reduced to only six minutes a tray and could be distributed across America, making it a holiday symbol. Now that we can all enjoy these darlings, we wanted to upgrade one of our faux tulips to see their happy faces on display this Easter.

Macramé wall hangings give you that Boho design style, but some can be time consuming and intricate.

Infuse reds, pinks, lavender, and a little sparkle to elevate the hanging to Valentine’s Day wall décor status.

Halloween is looking a bit different this year but that doesn't mean we can't get into the spooky holiday spirit! One great way to spread some hair-raising cheer and be safe, is by “booing” your friends and neighbors.
