F is for Fern

This week's plants are ferns. I've always loved ferns. The bigger the better! This group of ferns is mounted on a piece of real pine bark.

There is a bird's nest fern, a staghorn fern and a fox tail fern. I added a bromeliad for color. The one in the little pot is an attempt at making a hand cut Boston fern.

This little staghorn is attached to a piece of driftwood I found at Juno Beach Florida. I thought it looked like a fish.  :D

Today, I'm off to find a one inch star punch. Then I'm going to work on the garden center. I've been putting off building the front of the store. I don't like the one that came with the kit. Not sure what I'll come up with?

Hope you have a beautiful day!

I had fun setting up this little scene to show you more of the plants I've made. The background photo is from Sanibel Toot's great blog. I enjoy visiting her when I need a beach fix. Her videos will take you there too!


Love this little flamingo I found. Isn't he just too cute?

Here's the staghorn fern I just finished. I like how it turned out.

I want to make another larger palm tree to add to the one above. I used Leslie Shepherd's tutorial at About.com. Most of these plants will go in the conservatory. Building that is on my "to do" list for the weekend.

Hope you have a sunny day!
