DIY APPLE BLOSSOM BRANCHES

 Have you noticed all signs of spring popping up in blog land?
If you follow my blog you'll notice that
I've had a spring theme going on this week.

Here's the  project I've been working on the past few days.
Inspired by Pottery Barn 
with their faux cherry blossoms displayed in a white pitcher vase.

Then I stumbled upon two blogs that made their own cherry and apple blossoms.

Mary's Meanderings ~apple blossoms
Susie Harris ~ cherry blossoms

They inspired me to make my own using their technique.

Here's mine in a spring displays.


  
As you can see in the photo below, 
my display looked like it was missing something.


To fix this problem....

... I added books under the Ikea plant and  SPRING
art work to the wall.

 Come back and
I'll share with you in a later post how I made
the art work and seed pot. 


Please come back for more!


Now come and join the fun!  Here are the parties I'm linking to.

I don't have a mantle to decorate, this is what I have instead and will link it to ~The Stories of A2Z Spring mantel linky:
