To celebrate spring, I set sights on making a few moss balls for an apothecary jar in my kitchen and my fireplace mantle.
 
I love decorating for the seasons and bringing the outdoors inside! Nothing says ‘Spring’ like moss and the color green! After a long winter it’s so refreshing to add this color to the home!
 
I always often change up the decor on my mantel – and it doesn’t have to cost a lot of money! These DIY moss balls are so inexpensive to make and really add a lot of impact to a space.

I bought this most amazing shade of chartreuse green Reindeer Moss. 

So, what’s reindeer moss???  Reindeer mosses were originally named for their value as a food source for reindeer and caribou in the plant’s northern range. Reindeer moss is really a lichen, not a moss.

I love its texture and the beautiful yellow-green color is perfect for spring!
