So my blogging friends, please meet Marian:
Greetings! First of all, I am so honored to be a guest on Steph’s amazing blog! What a treat. I am known in the blog world as Miss Mustard Seed. No, my parents weren’t unusually cruel; the name is from Mustard Seed Creations, my decorative painting and mural business. I know it sounds impressive that I am a professional artist and business owner, but I’m actually a stay-at-home mom of two toddlers who needed a way to make money to pay off a student loan. I am not a trained artist or a born entrepreneur. I just love painting, sewing, decorating, and thrifting and I am blessed to be able to make money doing it.

1.) Collect your bowls. I happened to have some silver bowls, but you could use anything you have.
3.) Gently separate a piece of moss that is roughly the diameter of your bowl.
Aren’t these so lovely?
I told you she was fantastic!!!

Thanks again Miss Mustard Seed!
Have a great weekend everyone!

Thank you for the feature. An amazing woman to say the least. I'm heading over to check out her blog. Thanks for sharing.
Take care and have a great day. God Bless!!
Miss Mustard Seed is already a favorite of mine! Always fun to see more of her!
Ok, I've been in the blogging world for a couple years now and I'm a little upset that I am JUST finding your blog! I have been missing out! Love it
Great tutorial! I wish I had thought of this before I paid 12 for a styrofoam ball to put moss on.
Ditto, styrofoam is expensive! Love the cheap version!
Oh my, I love these! Considering my history with real plants, these would be perfect for my house! I'll be sharing this idea in my Trash to Treasure round-up post, if that's okay with Miss M!
Love the moss bowls.Very upscale. Thanks for sharing the newspaper trick. Much less expensive than styrofoam and a good way to recycle.
those first two furniture redos are incredible!
The renovations are AMAZING>
FYI-I have a give-a-way starting tonight'

Love the idea of the moss bowl.
My parents had end tables very similar to that, two, one on either side of the sofa (or davenport as my mother called it) when I was a kid. Those pieces are long gone, but what a great update for some very sturdy pieces of furniture.
That little end table would match my bedroom perfectly!! And I never thought of painting the desk with chalkboard paint, although I would paint everything else with it!! And sitting at the desk is where I am always looking for a scrap paper to write on! Clever.
