Thank you for sharing! This video was actually informative, instructional and to the point. Appreciated ❤️
This is so fun! They add so much texture to the wall especially when you group a bunch of them together like that. Thanks for showing us how to make it!
Thanks so much Lauren :) I was really happy with the outcome. You can watch how I integrated the moss frames into an office next week. Take care!
wow it turned out really beautiful! I really wanna try this someday
This was SUPER helpful!! Love the added depth with styrofoam. I was just at Ikea as well. Guess I'll go back and see what frames they have. Thanks again!! :)
Glad it was helpful! The shadow boxes allow you to play around with the depth! Good luck with your project!
Yes my brain love dimension thanks for this. I can’t find anything on Etsy are anywhere of my liking I didn’t realized it was this easy thank you for sharing the dimension trick and the minimal tools and the pattern breakdown in which you lay out your colored moss this was truly effective for us as beginners
Looks amazing! I wonder how you water succulents and how often? Water spray?
Wow you back I'm so glad to see you you're amazing I enjoyed so much your video thanks for come back saludos desde la ciudad de Mexico
Hola! Como estas? Thank you so much for watching and I've got lots more fun content coming on the channel. Saludos!!
Very beautiful, thanks for sharing
Thanks so much for watching David!! I was so happy with the outcome :) More fun videos to come
Hi! I want to have the entire wall behind my vanity/sink be a moss wall. It would surround the mirror and the vanity lights. How would you recommend attaching the moss to the wall? Glue to styrofoam and then mount that to the wall? Will the preserved moss last in a situation like this?
Wow!!! Love! Love love this!❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Where did you purchase the real moss you put in the center? I tried finding something like it but can't seem to locate one. Thank you and great video!!!
love it, thank you for sharing
Thank you so much Sam! Looking forward to creating more fun projects on the channel
Beautiful, I wanna make some now
Yay! Glad you like the art. If you end up trying it, make sure to send me a picture!
Hi, I love your video. Thanks for sharing! I'm thinking of placing a moss art on my balcony wall. It does not receive direct sunlight nor rain but I'm thinking of using a woodframe with plexiglass (UV). Do you think that will work to ensure the moss stays pretty? I live in a tropical climate.
Thanks so much Melanie! I'm sure your moss are will look lovely! My only concern with the wood frame and the plexiglass outdoors would be the humidity. I haven't tried that yet. I just met a lovely Urban Botanist, her name is Emma and you should check her out on Instagram/RUclips. She would be a great resource for this question.
Вы очаровательный,а то ,что вы делаете,немного отличается от того,что есть на подобных каналах,огромное вам спасибо и низкий поклон.
Love!!!! Do you have any recommendations as to the types of moss to use, how much moss is needed per 19x19 ribba frame? I am thinking of doing 9 of them in my dining room. Thank you.
Hello. Do you like this style of hanging, too?
Hi Jennifer, sorry for the late reply! For this project, my client wanted 4 frames so I purchased a lot of the fake moss at the DollarStore to keep the budget down. I basically bought as many bags as I could find...which was around 6 bags. But I'm assuming that will need to measure the bag size of moss that you find at your Dollarstore/Craft Stores, then do the calculation for your frames. Length x width of bag, and see how many of these fit into the Ribba. Does that make sense? You may be able to double the area you want to cover if the bag of moss has a lot of depth. And then I bought 1 large bag of preserved moss at Michael's which had a lot of the brighter greens and natural colours which I used in the foreground. So, I had 7 bags in total but they weren't the same sizes. Sorry I don't have an exact number for you but hope the estimating will help you to figure out how much you need. By the way...9 frames would look so pretty! Just remember to allow the moss to "air out" in a ventilated room before installing in your dining room. I found there was a bit of an odour for the first few hours...which may have been the preserved moss. Have fun and good luck!
this art, wow, this is really neat.
It looks amazing, if I want to dry some I picked, can you give me some tips on how to prepare it so it lasts for long time
Love this! 😊 Just what I am looking for my home office wall 🌿
Beautiful!💕
Absolutely love this!:) The office renovation you did was so so beautiful and clever. But will the moss art keep green and fresh forever?
Thank you Mathilde!! Staying fresh forever would be amazing right? Fake moss can fade over time, especially if it's exposed to the sun.
However you can bring it back to life if you notice this happening. You can apply a small amount of craft paint to the moss with a sponge brush.
Dab any excess off with a paper towel. I found this advice online...check out this blog! www.notjustahousewife.net/freshen-up-moss/
reall moss in frame you can spray it with fresh water now and then
🤔 I may do this above my bed!!!!
That would look so awesome!!!
Don't use sheet moss because it flakes and it will get on you and in your eyes
Thank you for sharing. I would like to know how long does it take before you renew the moss?
Hi Steve, thanks for stopping by! I did this project a few years back and since it is a combination of preserved and fake moss, my client hasn't needed to do anything to it.
how lon does it last? do you need to water it frequently?
hey, loved it but will it stay alive, like this green for how long? how to maintain it?
Thank you! Sorry for the late reply. This is fake moss so as long as you keep it out of direct sunlight is should be ok
Look into serpadesign or paludariums, or aquascaping if youre interested in real moss. Hot tip the container should be water proof and you should get moss from areas that are near you and are in drier areas like side walks, roof overhangs, concrete areas, unmaintained driveways or your lawn if you're looking to keep it on a table or something, better survivability. Do not collect in state or nature preserves, as it is illegal in some places. Scatter your picking, better to collect a little and leave most behind so it can refill, moss grows very slow. Wash moss, quarantine moss for about 1 to 2 weeks in a loose lid tupperware container, make sure you let the container air out every day or so take care of any hitchhikers. Moss after rain or snow melt have the best colors, those you can even dry right after picking.
SimplyCherCher Great video. Where did you purchase the moss?
Maybe viewers can also try a more sustainable version
and swap out the styrofoam
for some of their cardboard from things such as their Amazon packaging, cut and stacked on top of each other and then build moss on top of that.
Love the look of this
Yes that's a great idea! I was also trying to reuse materials that I had at home. I'll definitely be reusing my amazon boxes in the future
Thank I for sharing this idea!!! Love it
SimplyCherCher what did you brush on top of the moss?
Does the moss stay alive? Do you have to spritz it with water?
Amazing!! Are these suculents real or plastic? How come it doesnt need watering?
So pretty
I can't wait to try this
love it...I’m going to do it!!
Have fun! Thanks for watching!!!
Must be the frame be so thick?
How do you hang it with the front of the frame?
Hello, this is awesome! Can you please share approximately how much moss was needed to fill the 19-inch frame? was it like 2 lbs? 5 lbs.? I know you can't be exact but I'm looking to buy the items online and have no clue how much moss I need to buy for a large frame like you used. Thank you!
Debra Faith Warshaw Hi Debra! So glad you watched the video! I totally “guesstimated” by looking at the package of moss and trying to buy enough packages to visually fill the frame. Again, it depends on how many colours you want to include as well. So if I wanted to use 4 colours, and it covered 1/4 of the frame, then I would be 4 packages. With this project I had to buy enough moss to fill 4 Ikea frames so it ended up being 3 large bags of preserved moss, and then I got around 6 bags of fake moss at the dollar store. I had lots of leftovers that I used for other projects. So the long answer to the short question is, I would see how many colours you want to use, measure the package of the moss and make sure you have enough moss combined to fill the length and width of the frame. Hope this helps!!
@@SimplyCherCher , thank you for replying.
I had to order it all online so I couldn't see/feel the package size the same way I would in person. I bought a frame that is 36 x 24 inches and I bought an assortment of bags in the only size I saw on the Michael's web site. I bought 13 bags of different preserved moss. I hope that will be enough.
I'm a little bit confused - is all of the moss a real one (not plastic) ? How do you care for it? Does it need water? Thanks
Loved the video. Where did you get the main moss mound? The first one you showed. Michael’s?
Hi Dapper DIY! You guessed it correct! I got the fake moss mound from Michaels. Hope you have fun making this!
I actually have an ikea frame with broken glass. This will be prefect.
Oh yay! Great reuse idea!! Thanks for watching
Where i can see frame with broken glass ?????????
Looks very well done, I've been wanting to make one of these for my girlfriend for a while. I've seen in some of your comments that you went to the dollar store to get the bulk of the moss, can I ask which? There are only a few dollar stores close to me and whenever I look up preserved moss it takes me to expensive kinds from home depot or something like that, Thanks!
Chandler McCook Hi Chandler, sorry for the late reply. Somehow this comment got lost in my mailbox. I got the less expensive moss from Dollarama in Canada. The rest of the moss was from Michael’s Craft store. What city do you live in?
@@SimplyCherCher Thanks and no worries, i've got a 6000 email full inbox so I can relate lol. I live in a small town called Woodbury near Nashville, Tennessee. If I look around a dollar tree I might be able to find some, and we have some Michael's not too far away, I'll probably check a hobby lobby too, thanks for the video the styrofoam for depth is a good touch.
where did you purchase the mixture of moss? could you include the link?
How do you remove dust accumulation? Would the vacuum pull off the moss?
Beautiful 😍
How can you stabilize the moss yourself? Did you buy it?
Can we use live moss that we collect from nature for frames?
Hi Divya, I haven't tried this with real moss. For real moss, I would definitely have to do more research :)
I left it outside and my wall moss art got wet , it is now shedding , how do I repair it?
I’m using moss on a DIY exposed terrarium (I’m not working on glass... yet) and this was very helpful! Now I do have a question, are all the moss that come in a bag fake? I got mine from Hobby Lobby and it feels very real so I was wondering if hot glue would kill it? I mean I’m finding out one way or another because I’m pretty much done lol but maybe you know more about the topic?
Oh yay! I'm glad that you found this video helpful! Some of the moss was fake (Dollar Store) and the one that I got from Michael's was preserved moss. What I've read about preserved moss is that it has been dried so I think you will be fine!
SimplyCherCher awesome thank you! :)
Nice work simplychercher... I like the idea for my living room. Plz let me know if I have to do the same with real Moss then what exactly i have to do. Secondly maintenance of such real moss
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Parag
Thank you so much! I haven't used real moss and I just spoke with an amazing expert. Her name is Emma from Urban Botanist and she mentioned that using real moss is a whole different method. This is something that I'm hoping to learn more about and do a future video.
@@SimplyCherCher Thanks for your prompt reply... Looking forward for that episode, 😀
From where you get this artificial moss .... Any specific site... That is so cheap ans so beautiful that actually I want to do it now
You can also do the frame from reclaimed wood, or some old picture frames. Replace styrofoam with somethings sustainable. And make sure to use farmed moss if possible. Just trying to think of sustainability 💚 love your pieces!
Super super easy loved it😍
Lots of love from Mumbai.
That's awesome! Wow all the way from Mumbai. Sending you a big hello from Canada :)
@@SimplyCherCher Hey Namaste dear and all the very best ahead,lots of love🤗
thank you for sharing....
but how to care for it and watering it?
Hello Simply Chercher! Great video. I wanna ask you a question.
1)What will happen to the natural moss after a certain period without spraying water over them?
2)Will the first natural moss look,look the same after two or three months?
3) on canvas,what will be the difference between natural and artificial moss. Suggest the best.
Thanks ,much love from Rwanda ❤
This is Amazing 😍
You did a amazing job! Didn't know it could be so easy :))! Does this work with "cold", regular glue too? Greets from Europ !
Hi Aquarius ways. I'm aquarius too LoL. Hmmm...for cold glue, is that regular white glue? I haven't tried that yet but with the Hot Glue sticks I find it dries quickly and has a stronger hold. I would imagine regular glue would take a longer time to dry.
Have you used anything besides styrofoam with success for the mounting piece? It would be great to use material that is sustainable to the environment. TIA!
No, I haven't tried that yet but it's a great idea! I feel like you could use anything that is lightweight and that will take hot glue...so perhaps layers of recycled cardboard glued to each other?
Lots of love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳 I'll try to make it, thanks for sharing
Oh wow!! So nice to connect with you, I'm from Canada! I hope your moss artwork looks amazing!
Hi,
Isn't the moss going to die from the hot glue?
Isn't it better to use florist foam and pins?
Hi Silviya, I used a combination for fake and preserved moss which is dried so the hot glue was fine to use in this situation. I had the styrofoam at home and was trying to reuse materials that I had lying around. But I'm sure you could use florist foam too!
SimplyCherCher amazing, i will give it a try, will tag you in when i am done 👍🏻😊
how do you water it
Hello. Where did you purchase this moss and whats the name of it ? Please help
Hi Pinkice191! I purchased the decorative moss sheets and fake succulents are from Michaels Craft Store (the brighter greens and preserved moss that you see), and the rest I got from Dollarama. I live in Canada so hopefully you can find something similar if you don't have those stores.
Thanks for this!!! Where do you purchase your nicer moss/succulents from?
Emily Tomas you’re welcome!!! I got the nicer succulents and moss from
Michael’s Craft store. More expensive but those were my main focal points.
SimplyCherCher thank you!!
This is such an good idea. May I ask were have you bought the moss?
Thank you so much! I bought the nicer decorative moss from Michael's Craft Store, and then found some standard faux moss at the Dollar Store which I used for most of the pieces. I like to mix it up to save on budget!
@@SimplyCherCher I love this! How many bags of dollar store moss would you say is needed for this size frame? Also is it a special frame like shadow box? The succulents don't require water?
@@SmileyYvette Thank you so much!! So glad you like it. For that size of frame, I used around 6-8 bags of moss. All the moss and succulents are fake so need to water. The frame is a RIBBA shadow box that I got from Ikea. When you are trying to calculate how much moss you need, just measure your frame to calculate the area that you need, then just make sure you have enough moss to cover that area with a bit extra just in case.
Does the glue kill the moss?
This is beautiful! Where did you purchase your moss?
Hi Daniel, Sorry for the late reply!! It's been a busy month indeed. I bought some of the moss from my local Dollarama (in Canada) and the rest I found at Michaels Craft Store.
@@SimplyCherCher Very Cute YOU & Your creation.Lovely!
@@RajShines Awww thanks so much Rajan! More fun projects to come :)
How would you plant the succulent?
The moss and succulents don’t need water?
Can Moss art be placed under Full Sun wall in backyard ??
Looks beautiful! How long do they last btw? 😃
Thank you so much! This is a combination of preserved and fake moss so it should last for a long time since you don't need to do any maintenance. Just keep it away from direct sunlight so it doesn't fade. Hope this helps!
Mam... Thank you so much... 🙏🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Like from Bharath (India) 🇮🇳 👍🏼 🥰🥰🥰
What do you use the paint brush for???
Hi Alexandra, sorry for the delay in the response. The paint brush was used to dust off the moss. It can get messy
Hello dear, Greetings from Ireland. I loved your work. I would like to do one with real moss. I have gone through your comments and hoping you will come up with a video on real moss.
Thanks and regards
Tincy Sebastian
Hi Tincy, thank you so much! I haven't created one with real moss but I will be doing a LIVE session with the Urban Botanist on August 24th, so stay tuned for those details. I'm going to make sure she answers all the questions about live moss, and what to keep in mind for future projects.
Is there a video for the large moss wall ???
Hi! Ahhhh that was a DIY that I did on my show Reno, Set, Go. Let me see if there's a link online for you to watch :)
Great look lively
Sorry to ask, no soil needed and it’s okay to glue plants like this? Will it be dying at the end of the day?
Hi Giney, thanks so much for watching! This is art is not living, it's a combination of preserved moss (dried) and fake moss. It's low maintenance. If you do want to try a living moss artpiece, I would suggest contacting my friend Emma @TheUrbanBotanist
@@SimplyCherCher I see! Oh gosh, they look so real to me. Nice artwork :)
Do these need to be watered daily ? a spray bottle perhaps?
Hi Yen, this project is used with fake moss so no water needed.
No watering ? Does the moss not dry out??? Or do you keep it in your bathroom?
Ah, it's artificial. I see.
Ahhh sorry for the late reply here. Yes, I used fake and preserved moss so it's maintenance free. Hope you are well!
is the moss real? if i dig up real moss from ground, will it work?
Hello and thanks for watching. This moss is not living, it's a combination of artificial moss and preserved moss. I am not an expert in living moss artwork, but you can connect with THE URBAN BOTANIST, her name is Emma and she has a YT Channel as well. She's a great resource!
Very tranquil moss art
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed the process of creating this.
Subscribed so awesome
are these moss natural or plastic ? dont they die out in the long run ?
Hi Aby! The moss I used was a mix. Some pieces were fake plastic. The rest were preserved and dried moss. Easy maintenance and no watering. Hope that helps!
Please,tell more about the glue,do you put over the moss too?
Hi There! No, I just used the hot glue to adhere to the backing. No glue over the moss.
Do you have to water it ?
Hi Carlos, no water necessary as it is a combination of fake and preserved moss.
Thanks exactly what I was looking for
ahhhh perfect!!! Hope you have fun making your own moss art piece
Are you in Etsy ? I love your art and you are beautiful! My shop PetrovskiArtHouse 2 month no sale at all ;(
Hi!!! Sorry for the late reply. Thanks so much for watching and I appreciate the lovely comments. No, I don't have an Etsy store as of yet, but I'll definitely check out yours.
I’m confused, what was the brush for? I saw you use it, but you didn’t say anything about it.
My mom loves you Miss :) greetings from Budapest Hungary :)
That is so sweet! thanks for leaving a nice comment and hello from Canada!
@@SimplyCherCher Oh we lived there - i actually was born in Canada!
Hi,
Where I can purchase different kinds of mosses online?
Thanks
Hi Bipin, I buy my preserved and fake moss from Dollarama (in store) and Michael's in Canada.
@@SimplyCherCher any WhatsApp or contact number of moss dealer?
How much did each moss wall end up costing?
It ended up costing about $50 a frame. It depends on the kind of moss you purchase...my client wanted different colours so I mixed some Dollar Store preserved moss with some more expensive moss from Michael's craft store. Pricing can vary.
It looks amazing! Is it possible to order it from you? Even if you are not doing it for sale, just put a price on it and wi‘ll figure it out :). Would this sound interesting for you? I‘d love to have some of such creations in my place, but I never done it before and I am so occupied with several other time intense hobbies, there wouldn‘t be a space to start something else with first fails etc.
Ahhh thank you so much! I made these for a client. I never thought about making them for sale! Good idea though...I would have to price it out and figure out shipping, etc. :)))
is this real moss, and what is the process to make it dry like that
Hey! Ik this is a late reply, but it’s rlly simple drying real moss. Just take it from wherever u r getting it and set it on some parchment for a day or two and it’ll dry naturally
which glue gun if used for joining that moss flawless?
Hi Irshad, thanks so much for watching! I just used a regular crafting glue gun and glue sticks to fit.
mem i am from India so i don't that much English it'my watsapp number +919505184393 i want to talk to you regarding moss please call me once
Loved your video! I am a new subscriber! ♥️Can you tell me what the name is of the frame you bought from
Ikea? Thank you!!!
how long will it last?
Hi Chathura :) Since I used a combination of fake and preserved moss, it will definitely last a long time...so far it's been a few years and it's still the same. Just keep it out of direct sunlight, no water needed.
Great work! Is this real moss? If it is does it require watering?
Thank you so much! The brighter green moss is preserved and the rest is fake moss. The moss does not require any watering so it's super easy to take care of. Just keep out of direct sunlight. Hope that helps!
SimplyCherCher thanks for your reply. Could I make the same thing with real moss? Would real miss be better for quality of air within the home or doesn’t make any difference? And would real miss require more work to keep it alive?
HI, haved a question. Is this a real moss ? o artificial vegetacion ?
Me too
Hi Lucas, this is a combination of preserved and artificial moss. The client wanted something easy to maintain so I combined both types of Moss as I wanted to also have lots of colour options.
although they look gorgeous in the piece, i dont think succulents would normally grow where moss is...they prefer dry environments
Damien Dolomite good to know! Thanks for sharing
What about maintenance, will it not die.
Jon Brown of course it will die,she just hot glued it. Real moss is expensive to make and take care of
It's preserved moss so it will last as long as it doesn't come in contact with water and mositure... i have it in a little decorative fake terrarium in my house it's been a year and the moss still looks like i bought it yesterday... key is to get good quality well preserved moss so probably not from the dollar store if you want it to last long :)
Thanks
Vidya Bk where did you buy the preserved moss? 🙏
Vidya Bk thank you 😊👍
Is it need wather??
Aliaa mohamed no water necessary as this is fake moss
Do you water it? Or just let it die :(
Hello and thanks for watching! This is artificial moss and preserved moss so no water needed.
Hello, is dollarama moss plastic or is it real ?
Hi Bobinette49! All the moss is fake for this project.
Did she use real or fake? Is the stuff in the bags fake?
Hi Sarah, Yes! I used fake moss from craft stores. They come in bags.
Is that life moss?
where is her wallpaper from @3:23 with the leaves? so goood
