Metamorphosis Monday – Resurrection Garden   17 comments

Metamorphosis Monday

First  and foremost, I apologize for my lousy before picture.  While I was working on this project, I received a phone call that my mom had fallen on a sidewalk outside the tea room she was to celebrate her birthaday at with my sisters and nieces down in California.  So, needless to say I was a little distracted.  She is fine – just in pain and has two real nice black eyes!

So, the project I was working on was my Resurrection Garden centerpiece for Easter Sunday.  Here’s the before:

The picture above does not show my cool plate I purchased at Michael’s to transform into my Resurrection garden.  Oh well!

Here’s the finished project:

I used a lidded box for the empty tomb by cutting a door in the box. The stone that covered the tomb is a premade ornament that I covered with little stones which I also used on the tomb and the walkway to the tomb.  I also covered the tomb with some of the moss as well. Then I used mini succulents and pieces of flower arrangements to put the finishing touches on the garden.  A great project for Easter!

Have a wonderful Holy week everyone and I hope you have a chance to celebrate Easter Sunday thanking Jesus for dying on the cross for our sins. The reason for the true metamorphosis in my life!
