I love this spring basket by Martha Stewart.
The bark basket is really cool.
The moss and mini daffodils look pretty too.
And the little chicks are adorable!
I decided to try and copy it.
Not surprisingly I don't like it nearly as well as Martha Stewart's.
But Martha is perfect so what do you expect? ;)
I found the birch bark basket at the thrift store.
I bought it thinking it will look really cute at Christmas time filled with evergreens and red berries.
I'm glad I've found a way to use it more than once a year.
The mini daffodils are from Michael's crafts store.
I think real flowers would be so much prettier.
I saw some mini daffodils at the grocery store a couple of weeks ago,
but I wasn't sure if they were still carrying them and
I didn't want to run all over town with my 2 year old looking for them, so fake will have to do.
I already had the moss rocks.
I got them several years ago from Z Gallery.
The little chickies are from Michael's.
You had to buy a package of six, so I will have to find some other places in my home to place them.
It's fun to bring a little spring into my home.
Especially since we are getting beautiful spring weather here in Illinois!
Bulbs are starting to come up in the yard.
We haven't lived in this house in the spring so I have no idea what's been planted.
It's going to be a fun surprise to see what flowers come up!









Your birch basket is wonderful and I love your flowers and chicks. You did a great job with your copy cat. Hugs, Marty

Hi Lisa! Your copy cat is TOO CUTE. You did a great job with the chicks and bark basket...so springy. I'm sure your 2-year old loves it too. I saw your post over at Debbie Doos Copy Cat Challenge.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I actually like your basket better - love the lighter birch colour and your chicks are adorable! I love the anticipation of seeing what emerges in the spring. We've moved so often in the summertime that I've had that anticipation often - sometimes a good surprise, sometimes not so much :)
ReplyDeleteyour basket looks beautiful!! I love the cute little chicks.
