Instructions
Cut a piece of cardboard about two inches larger than the length and width of the birch tube.

Cut strips of the moss and glue it on to the cardboard, filling in all the gaps around the birch tube.
Cut stems of flowers off of the floral bunch and glue them to the birch tube as if they are growing out of the tube. Feed some of the floral stems into the holes of the birch tube like they would grow in nature.
Continue to glue flowers to the log until the length is filled with flowers but you can still see the birch tube. Repeat on the other side.

Paint each of the candles with acrylic paint so it will look more natural on the birch tube.

Attach the candles for your beautiful spring decoration.
