My First Preserved Moss Wall Piece (And the Ugliest Green color EVER)

[@nursesrock4264]

this was so satisfying to watch. lm motivated to try it

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Good luck!

[@JAYNEmM1962]

Love it! Got me thinking of one with fern fronds dried even the curls. You have a very artistic style. I'm here for it.

[@mondo6595]

i didnt know we need glue to make these small plants stand

[@danusiabeatz]

Where’s the best place to find cheap bill preserved moss??

[@SoilandMargaritas]

🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@LaPrincessa1947]

I used to work with silk florals back in the 90's and there was a preserved reindeer moss product that was so soft it was a dream to work with. Seeing today's video I can almost smell the product. Exciting! And your design...it flows, it has interest, it's dimension, and you nailed it, mija!!!!

[@TheEnthusiasticGardener]

Oh I think this turned out so beautiful, and not that expensive for a large individual piece of artwork. I have never seen these before and you did a fabulous job. One question I have is will the colours fade over time, or are they preserved to stay the same? It’s beautiful 🤩

[@SoilandMargaritas]

I think it will be a while before they look dried, the moss is already preserved so it will not fade easily.

[@mildredkrisik8888]

I had never seen a moss wall piece before. Your creation is beautiful. Seems to me the price of your materials was quite reasonable for the large piece of art you created. Home depot has hundreds of color samples (paint) you could explore if you don't learn to like what you have. Great job again!

[@margiechism]

Moss print the wall paint ■ I would work that green paint with another color, perhaps the brown from the frame; if it works, I suggest getting some moss and use it like a sponge, then the wall will not have a solid accent but a textured. Do not forget to sign the moss work, perhaps the frame would be a good place. Great work!

[@tracyphoenix8]

Saw moss in title and the large frame of moss and had to watch. Love moss, love green, love nature. Love that this wall art lets you create and play around. It's so beautiful. I was thinking of adding the moss to a succulent wall art, but dried moss will get wet when I water the succulents. Will that be ok? I know they sell live moss. Should I use that instead?

[@laurenwellman2516]

Great idea and project Roxanna. It looks fabulous!! I love your choices of moss and colors and placement. Almost looks like you are in the sky looking down on top of trees in the landscape. 🥰

[@debashreesinha3062]

How did you hang? Could you please guide in terms nails or hooks that you use to hang the piece. Btw, i loved the art!!

[@angiewhiddon911]

This was my first video I’ve seen from you. You are super at sharing all of the steps you took and the materials. It turned out perfect. I’m gonna make one this summer! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@bevirose]

Very pretty. Looks like an ariel view of a forest. Lovely piece & well worth it! Thx you for sharing.

[@kelleyfreeman8846]

Do you happen to have the approxmate box count you used? I’m doing this project but going for 4x6 size and will need to double most likely! Thanks!

[@SoilandMargaritas]

I don’t! I did it a couple of years ago now

[@KirtiRoda]

Thank you. I would like to know how your husband made the wood frame.

[@yowgyrl]

I'm in the process of making a preserved moss frame and I'm looking on Amazon for different colours of moss and boy are they are expensive.

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Yes, the pillow moss is so darn expensive but beautiful looking!

[@ianpierregomes8373]

thats absolutely beautiful. Such a shame it's hard to find one good type of moss to buy in Brazil let alone this much. This is amazing!

[@okolo007]

Hi, I'm seeing this 1 year later and will be making one too. You did superbly well. How is it holding up?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

I actually did a one year review… search it and hopefully it comes easy

[@melodymcneil7892]

It's stunning, my first thought is how will you dust/clean it?

[@ilnpa2722]

My thoughts exactly! 🤔

[@emkn1479]

That’s always my first thought with decor items 🙈 because my house is super dusty

[@HarmonyHillsHomeandGarden]

So beautiful! I think I’m going to give this project a try sometime soon. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Glad you found it! It was super easy!

[@AbdullahAbdullah-cs8it]

[@Carmen-ok]

What a beautiful work of art you have created. I truly love it. Very nice conversation piece. Amazing work Roxana ❤👏🏼😊

[@marionbetham5017]

this looks amazing. well done ;)

[@lorkalouka1]

Bonjour 👋 comment avoir la vidéo en français 😫 j’ai tellement envie de comprendre ! Merci 🙏

[@patking7853]

Absolutely gorgeous! You SHOULD be pleased with your work. 😁

[@SnappyR]

Amazing! My first thought when you held it up was that it was an arial drone view of a big area with alot of trees!

[@milliebutterfly]

You did an amazing job. That is beautiful 😍

[@alfredstark1653]

Beautiful and Spectacular work created by you... Beyond words...

[@patz780]

This piece is beautiful, Roxanna. You are so creative. And what a lovely addition to the blank wall space. I agree that the paint could be adjusted to better reflect the moss painting…perhaps a little darker and richer green.

[@patking7853]

I've never seen this before. So interesting!!!

[@adefirman6311]

Maaf kebanyakan bicara nya...jadi kurang fokus..sebaiknya di kurangi..hehhehee

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Sorry… that’s the way I like it! There are other tutorials out there… good luck!

[@Ginax111]

Beautiful. How does it stick to the board?

[@hugod8669]

I just started mine instead of buying it! i did the frame for now and im so excited! you have a nice composition/variation, good depth and nice contrast!!! it look so natural! thanx for your help! :D

[@deborahr9237]

This is a statement piece - you did a great job and really have an artistic eye. I know the pillow moss is expensive, but you def needed the highs and lows of it. The green paint had too much blue in it, but I love the dark color you have done since.

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Thank you so much!

[@janetneill2660]

I LOVE it! I'm so inspired to make one myself! Thank you for showing us the process.

[@FMA419]

This is incredible stuff - thank you for sharing. Can’t wait to make one for my apartment

[@PrincessOfTheUniverz]

How did this hold up?

[@riverunner9978]

O wow! It’s gorgeous with all the texture and tones. When you placed it on the wall it really pops. Beautiful creation! 😍

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@BramptonGardener]

Wow that is just stunning.

[@OhimynameisGoaway]

woooooow...

[@ashleys7565]

Wow! This is the first time I’ve seen this kind of art. I want to make one now!

[@dawndawn6946]

😍😍😍Oh, my goodness! How beautiful! That’s a great price for an original piece of art I LOVE it!!! Now I want one…🤔

[@asianangie7209]

Turned out super nice! Love the frame color and substantial size!

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Thank you!

[@eleanorcapulong8781]

Omg love love love this! I am inspired to make an overhead "view " of my house and small suburban garden.

[@PattySmith1313]

How much did this cost? I didn’t hear that in the video. Thanks!

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Check the end

[@kanagawakenji7]

$173 total. $145 on moss [on sale], $23 frame, and $15 misc.

[@markmac9586]

Waww by far the best moss picture I have watched being made im so tempted to try and make

[@patking7853]

I'm assuming you didn't need to spray the finished project to keep it all in place. Outstanding!

[@amazinggracedevotionals]

You said you were going to share the price at the begging.. then didn’t

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Watch the entire video 😘

[@TheresaSarvis]

Yes she did share… watch the end

[@aimeeelliott7608]

SO glad I found this video! I'm wanting to re-do our bedroom and I want it to feel like a cool grotto with ferns and moss growing on the walls. (Just a bit fanciful I'd say.!) Yours looks very doable. Do you know if anyone has tries it with living moss? I know that is a poor idea for me, our humidity is usually below 20%. Love the way you teach, and I'm headed for the after one year video.

[@SoilandMargaritas]

I have seen something done with real moss but as a centerpiece, but I would be worry about pests living there like fungus gnats or flies. Also, leave it up to me and the moss would completely died 😩

[@launacreary1139]

Very Impressive

[@shajinnambiar2000]

So beautiful. Looking down on it from above it looks like a mountain landscape. Great Job! Always look forward to seeing your videos. 💚

[@lenlen8008]

Impressive!

[@kathynelson30]

Nice job! Love it ! But wall color not working for me?

[@KD-mz5xv]

amazing job. thanks for sharing. will try.

[@nialljoyce6011]

Hey loved the work & design - Just wondering how it's looking now, has it faded much? Do you need to do anything to maintain it - or are you expecting a good few years out of it yet?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

I answered ALL those questions in a recent video I did this month for an update kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3yYqZKwp9OAl80si=Pqklqt8p70HfW0i2

[@BramptonGardener]

I wonder how black would look.

[@AmericanaGardens]

Love this idea! I’ll be doing something similar to this during the winter!

[@alifpathpath5559]

Thanks for the video, it’s beautiful ❤

[@stetrick612]

Love this. Now I need to think of where to put one I make...

[@cyhomer]

Okay, so I do love this, BUT - isn’t this just going to dry up and flake off all over the place?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

It is already preserved to stay that way. It is not live moss.

[@Ash-xx5zd]

Too much green. Consider blue green if not a bright refreshing blue. It'll be beautiful without distracting from the moss!

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Thank you!

[@charlottebolton6705]

You have inspired me.🎉 Love doing puzzles when I was young. Going to use a smaller size until I got the hang of it.

[@kazolahamed5257]

Is it living moss?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

Preserved! NOT living anymore.

[@evelinaz1548]

oh i LOVE how you painted the green accent where you hung the piece up!! has the piece held up well? does it get really mossy/messy even while it hangs over time?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

The moss is doing really well, I hardly have to do anything to it, other than a very light and gentle dusting!

[@CuratedwithKimieSoula]

Beautiful; is it just a regular picture frame ?

[@ascensiondiaz9390]

Nooo, It`s beautiful and natural colour!!!!!

[@melaniem5971]

What a gifted eye you have! Absolutely Beautiful ❤

The green on the wall is taking away from your project, which btw turned out beautiful 😍

[@SoilandMargaritas]

In the description of the video :)

[@Germanywithtripti101]

did they survive ?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

???? The Moss? It is preserved moss... it looks today like it did day 1, it is NOT a live plant.

[@raccoon1136]

I would definitely like to do this but doubt that will the board get mouldy in that upon moist environment

[@SoilandMargaritas]

The moss I used was preserved moss, so no moist whatsoever, think of this piece as a dry-flower piece, I don't water it... it is supposed to be a maintenance free item, I just gently dust it here and there.

[@angelaschettino1327]

This is the first time I ever saw this done and love it! I don’t know if I missed it but does it have to be watered or dampened in any way to keep its color?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

NO, it is preserved moss so other than dusting it with a very soft brush no other maintenance needed from what I read.

[@jasminelouisefarrall]

What a fun project 😃 it looks beautiful Roxana 🥰

[@gretchenapelgren5054]

Awesome! I might have to try,

[@SoilandMargaritas]

My pleasure 😊

[@jenniferwalsh6568]

Beautiful! Love the texture and dimension to the wall with paint too!! 🤩 Stunning!

[@Edu_Kate]

I am finally watching this after admiring your artwork for a while. It reminds me of an arial view of a forest. I love it❣️ The materials price is not outrageous. I've been looking for still life prints that I'd still have to frame and this is far less. Since mine will be in my dining room, I might try adding dried mushrooms to the moss sculpture. Maybe not. 🤔

[@SoilandMargaritas]

It is definitely doable for the price, I checked some finished pieces on etsy around this size and the prices are quite high, people get tree branches, fern leaves, rock or other interesting textures to add to it.

[@Edu_Kate]

@@SoilandMargaritas Yes. I've been looking for ideas on Pinterest since you mentioned you saw many videos on making this. I have reserved branches I'd planned to use in a similar wall hanging. Since the moss is so pretty (green IS my favorite color, too) I can incorporate the two. I have so many creative ideas swirling in my head. I've been working on plans to overhaul my front yard, but it's buried under lots of snow. (Just found a tree I'm obsessing over. Krauter Vesuvius cherry plum tree.) Come on, Spring!

[@mariateresapalmisano2626]

Is it necessary water it? What happens in summer when it is hot?

[@SoilandMargaritas]

I don't water it and I haven't gone a summer with it.
