Today we whipped up a cute and super easy project for Emma's bohemian styled bedroom. This project only takes about 30 minutes and it's so fresh and pretty... perfect for spring. Enjoy!
1. Supplies: Antlers (ours are faux from Hobby Lobby), silk floral stems, green felt, hot glue gun, scissors. 2. Begin by taking the flowers off the stem and applying a thin layer of glue between the petals and the plastic base of the flower (this holds it together after the stem has been removed) 3. Once it's dry, cut off the tip of the stem, making the base flat. 4. Then, cut out and glue on a small felt circle to the back of the flower. 5. Lastly, apply a thick coat of glue to the felt and attach it to the antlers. Continue these steps until you have a pretty floral collage covering your antlers. ♥
Enjoy your new antler display! Use it to hand pretty necklaces and scarves! xo. elsie

This is wonderful! I wish I had some antlers to do this with. I'll be going for a walk in the woods soon in hopes of finding some.

This is such a great idea! I love the look of the hard antlers with the soft pretty flowers. I have to look for some faux antlers!
