Are you ready? This project is inexpensive, easy and fun to make and tasteful. Let's get started! Learn more

Grab those Supplies

01 Find yourself an old and empty frame. Then head to the dollar store and get yourself some pool noodles, cardboard, x-acto knife, hot glue, moss and faux succulents. Learn more

Prep Your Frame

02 Next you will begin by prepping your frame. If your frame already has art in it this is where you will decide if you should leave it, and just cover it with your pool noodles, or pop it out and add cardboard.

Prep and Attach Your Pool Noodles

03 Measure your space, then rip your noodles in half to create a flatter surface to attach them to the cardboard. Full Tutorial

Paint Your Pool Noodle Art

4 Paint your pool noodles so they will blend in with the color of moss you choose to cover your noodles with.

Attach Your Moss

05 Next, attach your moss of choice and color using a hot glue gun. Hold up your frame and look for empty spots to fill in with extra moss. Learn more

Add Your Succulents

06 Finally, pick which succulents you want to add. Push them into the gaps of the noodles and secure them with hot glue as well. Space them out as you please!
