And it also happened to be the cheapest kind of moss at the craft store!Here’s the label.. No fancy specialty mosses for me!
Plain and simple.I think it was around $6 Canadian for the big bag, which, with the exchange rate, probably works out to roughly free in US dollars.. To make a nest, all you need to do is cut off a small blob of moss.About a handful should do the trick for most of your Easter nest needs..
It definitely can get a little messy, so work somewhere that you can sweep up easily..Hold your moss blob with your thumb in the middle and press down to start the indentation for the middle of the nest.. Keep shaping the moss into a nest shape, almost as if you were working with clay.
The little mossy fibers really grip onto each other with this stringy kind of moss and they really hold a shape nicely..
When you’re done, make some more!They chop down trees to try to get rid of them.
They hold crow hunting contests to see who can kill the fatest one.But I kind of love them.
