no watering necessary!

I've been on the hunt this month for all things GREEN!
Topiaries, boxwoods...anything fake really. Here's some of my faves.

This boxwood wreath was too small for the original place that I had in mind for it, so I adorned this candlestick instead.
Being the thrifty gal that I am, I actually made these moss balls. It's as easy as hot-gluing moss to styrofoam balls. Super cheap & super easy!
Up close, you can see a few bald spots where my daughter has had her way with them. It's a game we play daily.
These 2 guys are enjoyed from both my kitchen and living room.
On a side note, if you haven't come across these cloche bell jars,
they're becoming very popular.
For other ideas on how to use them, click here, here, and here
I've even added some color to my front porch.
No watering needed!!
Do you have a love for fake greens
OR have you used a cloche jar before??
Tell us about it!!

  1. Love all of the fake greens. I have made a ton of the moss balls in all sizes and a topiary too. Cloches are one of my favorite things. I have about 5 of them and use them to house everything imaginable. They are fabulous to decorate with. If you've missed my Cloche Parties you can look back in my archives. We just had one last month and there were about 100 entries with some of the most fabulous displays you've ever seen. We will be having another one for the fall in Sept. I hope you will join then. Hugs, Marty
