Ring Pillow : A mossy
ring pillow would look fetching at an
outdoor affair. To make: Glue green
ribbon around an ice-cream-pint top.
Glue green felt to bottom. Arrange spike
moss in top. Anchor ribbon to moss with
floral wire. Slip rings through ribbon;
tie a bow.
DIY Lanterns : Lanterns
made of vintage jars clad in
gold-trimmed ribbons exude homespun
charm. Use them to illuminate walkways
or arrange on a table with place cards
or cocktails. (Beware: Jars get very
hot.) To prevent sticking, fill vessels
with 1/8 inch of water before setting
votive candles inside
