DIY Spring Door Decoration

Beautiful Easter Door Decoration

Source: bhg.com via Susan on Pinterest

Saw this pretty Easter door decoration at BHG.com made from a green umbrella and was so inspired!

I scoured my house for an old umbrella that needed a new life. Do you find that umbrellas have a short life no matter how careful you are?

I found this clear plastic umbrella that was broken and useless against the rain. I filled it with a green plastic bag and green floral paper.

I wrapped it with 2 ribbons in yellow check and pink. Then I tucked in silk flowers so that it would stay pretty longer.

Using items I had around the house I was able to put this together in 1/2 hour or so.

Adds a nice spring touch to our front hallway. This would also be lovely for a bridal shower or other special celebration.
Enjoy!

Hard to believe how fast a month can go by! Between working more hours and being sick (early spring in Western New York means more pollen!) the time has flown by.
