Make your own moss-filled topiary containers….

February 20, 2013 By Jennifer

I love moss filled planters.In fact, I just love moss. In fact I noticed that I mention it a lot. There is just something about it. But I have noticed that they are a bit pricey,
I am starting to miss the green outside and thought I would make my own!

Use these supplies to make a  simple moss topiary

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. The package did mention though not to let it touch fabric.I am assuming it’s a tad bit dyed and the green might transfer.

Make a moss topiary

And a foam ball that just fit on the top of my 40% off coupon-ed urn.

Use hot glue and a foam ball to make a moss topiary

A little hot glue..

How to make your own moss topiary, it's super easy!

So for just under $10…I got me some moss ball!

    Thanks for sharing it again, Jen! I didn’t see it the first time around. Such a great idea and I like that you didn’t have to cover the whole ball. More moss to do another one then! : )

    I wasn’t reading blogs in 2009, so this is perfect. I was looking for something for my mantel and I think this is it 🙂

    great project! I’ve looked at the moss at Joann’s the past few times I’ve been there but haven’t bought any yet because I’m afraid I will not get anything made and it will just get added to my ‘stash’!

    As a fan of MASH and The Andy Griffith Show, I love me a good re-run. And, this one is perfect for Easter, Spring and St. Pats!

    Pinned 🙂

    I was just thinking about making some topiaries and I think this styrofoam ball, moss, and glue gun idea is just what I need!

    Thanks for the inspiration!

    🙂 Linda

    I am planning to post about moss very soon too. I love it also, such a needed spot of bright green – though I live in the Pacific NW so I am surrounded by moss, and it’s hard to stomach actually ‘buying’ it 🙂 I love your idea, I think I will try something similar to that soon.
