Robins Nest in a Rusty Tin Can

It may be cold outside, but that's no reason to think Winter...I much prefer to think Spring instead--a Primitive Spring to boot! With that in mind, I created this Robins Nest in a Rusty Tin Can.

The eggs are wooden. I painted them Robins Egg Blue to start with, then speckled them using a toothbrush and some watered down brown paint. I added some Spanish Moss to the Rusty Tin can and hot glued the eggs on top. Then I took some Spring yellow pip berries and stuck in stems of them around the nest to give it some more color. I finished it off with a simple jute string on the outside of the can.

I thought about adding a little fake robin, but when I was finished I just liked the way it looked as it is, so I decided to roll with it. Think Spring, y'all!
