Nest Egg

I saw this idea a couple years ago at a cute local shop called Topiaries. 

I suppose it's what you would call a "statement piece".
Just a bit over the top but SUCH fun!

You'll need:

a grapevine wreath

a package of raffia

and then a bunch of trims, tulle, ribbon

or anything else that can be tied around the wreath

let your imagination go wild!

here's a peek

I tied long strands of raffia around the wreath

I put it over a floor lamp so I could work on it easier

What is it?

Can't tell you yet.....

Then I tied on long strips of tulle and netting

And began adding strips of trims

And ribbons

What is it?

And rickrack

I found a tiny wired flower garland in my stash too

Have you guessed?

When I was done, I found an urn and an egg

and

here's my Nest Egg

Need a better picture?

How's this?

Or this

and last but not least......

I love it...do you?
