I love sweeping away the dull drums of winter and welcoming in SPRING! I also love to bring natural elements into my decor (aka - use what's in your backyard), here's a quick DIY project for your Spring parties, get togethers, dinners, Easter, etc..........create your own nest.
These are darling set on a mantle as well with your spring decor, put into a large vase or even on a door wreath! Get creative and have fun! Be sure to share how/where you set your little nests in the Brassy apple Flickr group!

Step1 - Bag of Spanish Moss from the $1 store (yup it's cheap! I liked the look/color of the spanish moss)
Step 2 - Separate a good handful. The larger the handful, the bigger the nest.
Step 3 - Create a hole in the middle
Step 4 - Using both hands, twist one sides of the nest up while you twist/turn the other side down
Continue twisting all around the sides This will help the moss to keep the nest shape and help it from shedding moss pieces.
Step 5 - Decorate! Use them for Easter Dinner filled with Candy eggs....
or to hold the name cards.......
or even as a napkin ring!
