Today’s DIY is a project that we worked on while we were setting up The Gateway to Amish Country.
The Gateway is full of creative displays, both indoors and in the surrounding yard, and we placed our colorful DIY wood flowers all around! There are a number of possible variations on this project, as you will see throughout the steps.
For this project, you will need the following supplies:

New Display Idea for Hanging Baskets!
Wednesday, May 18th, 2011Looking for a new way to spruce up your landscaping this year?
Need a new twist for your hanging baskets?
We’ve got it!
This is one of our outdoor displays at The Gateway, and you can see it for yourself if you’re able to visit us this weekend during our Girls’ Night Out Before School’s Out event!
More Display Ideas from The Gateway!
Wednesday, May 11th, 2011If you have a vendor’s license, and are in the area, then I hope we will be seeing you at The Gateway to Amish Country today for our vendor-only Grand Re-Opening event from 9am – 4pm.
If you’re not a vendor, but still live close enough to visit, we’ll be welcoming you to The Gateway on May 20th from 4pm – 9pm and May 21st 10am – 4pm for Girls’ Night Out before School Is Out!
Whether you’re able to come to The Gateway or not, you can still enjoy some of the colorful and original displays throughout, and maybe pick up a few ideas for your own decorating!
Above is a weathered cabinet which cheerfully showcases some Blossom Bucket, Inc. spring products! To help create that spring feeling, we added bird nests, moss mushrooms, wreaths and more, including several birds designed by Deb Strain.
Infusing an indoor display with few outdoor elements can breathe new life into your décor, while also adding color and texture. We’d love to see how you show off your favorite items at home or in your shop—share your photos on our Facebook page!
Fun & Unique Scarf Tree
Wednesday, May 4th, 2011
Have a collection of scarves at home that deserve more than a hiding place in a drawer or closet?
Maybe you carry colorful scarves and wraps in your shop, and you’re looking for a new way to display them?
Here’s one great idea that we used in The Gateway to Amish Country!
For this whimsical scarf display, we selected a weathered-look flowerpot on a pedestal. We stuck with a neutral color so it wouldn’t detract from the scarves.
Creative Display DIY
Wednesday, April 27th, 2011
Whether you’ve got an antique cabinet that you’re looking to fill or a shop that could use a few new merchandising ideas, there’s something in today’s DIY for you!
We wanted to create a warm and inviting atmosphere in The Gateway to Amish Country, our new retail store.
In order to accomplish this, we used a number of original antiques and natural woods.
We’re also creating a sense of community in The Gateway, which means that not all of the product in the store is Blossom Bucket, Inc. merchandise.
