Oat in the pot plus unfading flower for Mother’s day!
Any Mom loves gardening. Well, not any, but most of. Impress your beloved one with something that you grew yourself!
Craft supplies
Flower pot (yogurt cup size is enough. Or, you can use yogurt cup itself) with soil
Cat grass seeds (very fast to emerge – from just 3 days!)
Acrylic paint and glitter glue to decorate pot; paintbrush
Slim pipe cleaner for flower frame, 3mm green pipe cleaner for stem and leaf
Beads: I, heart symbol, love you Mom
Multicolored pony beads (we had glowing in the dark ones)
Directions
Plant the seeds in the pot, following instructions on the pack (don’t forget to do it in advance since sprouts need time to emerge and grow! Allow about 2 weeks)
Connect 2 chenilles together so you have one long one with no bumps
String the letters, twist, string regular beads and twist again, forming petals
Bend green chenille in half, twist all along to make it stronger for holding flower (don’t forget to form a leaf in the middle of the stem)
Put loose ends from flower through the top loop of stem, secure
Don’t forget to water your grass every day 🙂
On the Mother’s day, stick the flower into the soil, present to your Mom! Gosh she will be happy!
