Crows nest for Halloween decor

I made this crows nest from moss and a plastic flower pot.   I got a bunch of crows from the Dollar Store so this was really inexpensive. I am  using crows all over the house this year and am having a lot of fun with it.

Materials:

  • plastic flower pot
  • moss
  • crows (Mine are from the Dollar Store)

black plastic pot stick some moss into pot press down in center to make nest

Step 1.

Take a big bunch of moss and press it down into the pot. Push it down in the center to make the shape of a nest.

add a crow to top of pot add a second crow to bottom add a third crow

Step 2.

I hot glued the first crow on the rim of the pot. I added a second crow to the top and then put one more at the base of the pot as shown.

I found these great black acorns

Step 3.

I found these great black acorns out in the woods by my house so I put them in the nest.


About Elaine Kazinec

I have never met anyone who can't make wonderful things for their homes, friends, and family, only those who think they can't. The purpose of this blog is to show everyone how really simple most projects for the home are to make. When my husband and I bought our first home we were short on cash so I learned to be long on creativity. I have been told that I can make something wonderful out of nothing and that is true. You can too! Some of my favorite things are items that I found in someone's junk pile. I am going to show you how easy it really is. I hope you find the courage to jump in and attempt some of these projects. You will be amazed at how talented you really are.
