| When I started to put this fall vignette together on our coffee table, I had a certain look in mind and I needed a large nest. |
 |
| Yesterday I had been decorating the front porch with some sunflower heads......hummmm....what if I turned one of those upside down! The large cavity in the back of the sunflower makes a really nice nest. I set my "nest" between some antlers......filled it with moss....and other dried materials from the yard. |
 |
| I really like the natural look of my nest. |
 |
| I lined the edge of the nest with some dried pumpkin stems. Of course, my owl needed some eggs, so I placed some grey and white marble eggs in the nest. |
 |
| I tied some jute between the antlers and hung a fall banner with pink sparkly clothespins (Michaels) Behind the owl you can see (not very well, sorry) some candle sticks that I used dried pumpkin stems in place of candles. |
 |
| My banner is made from left over paint sample cards that I have repuposed to make my banner. I love the fall look that the Behr bear gives the banner. |
 |
| I placed some more dried pumpkin stems around the a small white pumpkin... |
 |
| You may recognize the sweet little owl in my nest from an earlier post on my fall mantle. The only owl I had left for my nest was too big....so, he had to change places with the mantle owl. |
