So it is time again for the monthly POV linky party!!! This months theme was "Spring". So First I will show you what all of us ladies did and then you will have a chance to link up any project that has to do with the theme SPRING.
Here are all the supplies (except the glue) that I used. The unfinished wood frame cost $1.00, the paint was about the same, the foam brush is even less than that, the sticks were free (backyard) and the moss was $5 and change for the whole big bag.
Then use your handy dandy glue gun to glue the sticks in place. This is the most time consuming step. Be careful to not go overboard with the glue because you don't want it oozing out all over. You can make it neat with straight lines or messy like a bird's nest. It is up to you.
Then play around with the placement of the moss before you commit to gluing. Use as much or as little as you want. Once it is where you want it, then glue it down.
Easter is almost here so you could even add a little bird nest to it. How cute would this be with a Easter cross stitch or Easter print inside the frame??? Want to know a secret? Those eggs are Cadbury Mini Eggs from my person stash. But hey, they work!
...or add ribbon to hang it.
Have fun making your own version of this moss frame!!!
Love this Stacy! The moss is just perfect. And I love it with the nest.

This is gorgeous, Stacy. The moss really makes me think spring. The addition of the little nest is so cute. Love it!
Love this Stacy! When you sent me the pic I was so excited to come comment on your post, but had to wait. LOl. You did such a great job!
I love this and cannot wait to make it!! You have a wonderful blog...can't wait to follow it!!
Such a simple yet beautiful idea! I am loving all of your moss projects!
Love the little nest! When I saw it at first I thought man, those remind me of mini eggs and I want to eat them. What a laugh I got when I clicked over and they actually were!
I love this frame!! So adorable..
Fabulous!!!!
Super cute idea!
I LOVE this! So pretty for spring!
How cute that is, I just do not have any sticks in my back yarn so where else can you get sticks like that?
I know of other bloggers who have said they bought their sticks at craft stores. I would check there or find a nice neighbor with a big tree :)
I just L-O-V-E the frame idea! I WILL be doing this!

great idea-just wondering where you got such cheap frames?
This is so adorable! First saw it hacked here: http://crazycraftsdiy.blogspot.com/2013/10/easy-way-to-make-spring-frame.html and came to your blog so I could pin the right link.

Simple LOVE this idea, Stacy! What I don't love is the fact that I saw a pin to this project on Pinterest (a collage) which led to a scraper site with no link back. Here's the link: http://topdiycrafts.blogspot.co.at/2014/01/easy-way-to-make-spring-frame.html Let me know if I can help you take them down!
That is a really good tip especially to those new to the blogosphere.
Brief but very accurate info… Many thanks for sharing this one.
A must read article!
