Getting my moss fix on..



Moss mounds. Want one.. gotta have one...NEEEEEED ONE. At Ballard's 
They are $30....  (crickets chirping.)  So what's a cash strapped girl to do?

Make her own! (With a coupon) At the good old Hob Lob I found a product called Supermoss.. Whe-hew! Supermoss to save the day..faster than a speeding lichen... (okay, I know, my geek is showing.)
And a foam ball that just fit on the top of my 40% off couponed urn.
A little hot glue..
So for just under $10...I got me some moss ball!
And how about a sneak peek at my project for the make over party on the 25th?

  4. Beautiful. Your mossy mound looks way better than the expensive ones. Theirs looks like a dried and lumpy ball of greenish playdoh in comparison ;-) Yours looks alive (in a plant kind of way, not a creepy way!)
