This is a little something I made for miss E’s nursery last summer, I just never got around to taking pictures of it until now 🙂
I was inspired by a lot of the store windows that sported similar concepts.
It was really easy and quick to put together. Start by getting a wooden dowel (I just bought one from Hobby Lobby), faux flowers to hang, hemp cord or something like it, and a hot glue gun. You also might need a wire cutter if you need to cut any of the flowers up. For instance, the yellow flowers were a big bunch and I cut off the short branches to spread out more.
Lay down the wooden dowel down and arrange the flowers how you would like them to look. I tried to spread mine out evenly.
Then tie the flowers in place with the hemp. I just did a double knot.
For extra hold, I highly recommend hot gluing around the hemp and stem of the flowers in the front
and then the back as well. I used extra long nails to hang it on. That made sure there was enough room to hold the dowel.
Enjoy!

cute flowers!
So pretty Jess. I wonder would the boys who live in my house object if I tried that here…? (They do like picking lavender).
These is really cute! At first I thought, how do these still look so great if you did it last summer?! But duh! Fake flowers! I’ll have to remember this when I redo my daughter’s room.
so so cute! thanks for sharing 🙂
Really nice idea. I think I’m going to do this.

Wow, that is strikingly pretty. I’d love to do an herb version in my kitchen!
That’s so nice and simple! Flowers are always an inspiration!
So pretty! And those flowers look real, I was fooled for a second
Wow this is super amazingly cute. I need to make this STAT!
I can’t pin this, and I really really want to. Did you purposely block it?
Well, I’m so glad they look kind of real 🙂 I was hoping for that! lol I tried to buy nicer ones to it would look nicer. I got these on clearance last summer because they were the spring ones they were getting rid of.
Mandee-
Hi 🙂 It isn’t blocked. I’ve had other people have the same issue and usually when they come back and try again later it works. I think sometimes that pinterest has the “hiccups” as I call them 😉 So try again and maybe it will work, or maybe you can find it already pinned on pinterest and repin it?
that looks so pretty!
