2 Ways to Use Garden Seeds as Mother’s Day Gifts

May 2, 2023 by thevettelfarm

Wonderful Spring, the time when we can celebrate all of the amazing mothers, grandmothers, and soon to be mothers in the world. What better way to celebrate Mom this year than with a few pretty garden seeds. Today I am sharing two fun ways to display a variety of fun garden seeds for you to give to your favorite Mom out there. Each of these took under 5 minutes to create and they have a big impact!

I fell in love with the Valley Greene garden seed packets because of the minty green color and I had to use them in a fun way as a gift. Both my Mom and Mother-In-Law love to garden, so these were absolutely perfect for both of them.

Garden Seed Wreath

SUPPLIES

  • Garden Seeds
  • Garden Gloves
  • Grapevine Wreath
  • Mini Clothespins
  • Faux Flowers

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. To create this wreath, begin by weaving your faux flowers through the grapevine wreath to secure.
  2. Take your garden gloves and weave into the grapevine wreath
  3. Use mini clothespins to secure each seed packet around the wreath. I used the grapevine wreath stems to intertwine the seeds too.
  4. Gift your beautiful seed wreath to a garden lover!

Garden Seed Watering Can

SUPPLIES

  • Garden Seeds
  • Garden Gloves
  • Watering Can, vintage or new
  • Mini Clothespins
  • Faux Flowers

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. To create this gift, begin by adding your faux flowers to the watering can.
  2. Take your garden gloves and tuck into the watering can.
  3. Use mini clothespins to secure each seed packet to the faux flower stems.
  4. Gift your beautiful seed watering can to a garden lover!

I hope these easy DIYs give you a few ideas to display your garden seeds or give them as gifts. These projects would be so neat to create with vintage garden seed packets for a fun display piece too! Linked below are all of the supplies you may need for these projects and a few other small gift ideas for MOM!

Happy Mother’s Day!

It started with a mushroom set and somehow an enti It started with a mushroom set and somehow an entire spooky woodland Halloween mantel followed. 🍄 #ad There’s something about the @balsamhill Mossy Woodland Mushroom Set that feels like it belongs in a forgotten little spooky forest. They are so realistic and the perfect set to spark your Fall decorating! 

I wanted this mantel to feel earthly, collected, a little mysterious, and just spooky enough. Think vintage storybook meets enchanted forest after dark. And these mushrooms became the piece that inspired all of it. 🍄

The Mossy Woodland Mushroom Set is such an easy piece to carry from early fall straight through Halloween and honestly, I think I’ll be finding excuses to style these long after autumn. Use code COURTNEYV50FALL to get $50 off orders $250 or more! Check out the link in my bio to shop! 

Would you go spooky woodland for Halloween?

The first day of school is always so special, so w The first day of school is always so special, so why not celebrate it BIG! 📚✂️✏️ We had our meet the teacher night last night and the kiddos are so excited to head back to school next week! 

So we’re bringing back the kind of first day of school worth remembering with @mymindseyeinc 🍎 One that feels a little slower, a little sweeter, and maybe even a little like stepping into an old schoolhouse photograph.

Because someday, these will be the “good old days” they look back on. Here’s to new teachers, new friends, new adventures…and making the first day feel just as special as it deserves to be. 🍎
