Basket of Flowers Spring Door Decor

While thrifting, I came across this wall pocket basket. It was a thin metal basket with chipped paint filled with Christmasy floral stuff but I figured I could yank it out and add some spring stuff.  After all, it was only $2. 



When I got it home and tried to remove the old greenery, I had quite a time.  Instead of regular floral foam inside, there was this thick, white styrofoam that had obviously been glued in with super strong cement. 


I had to get out a screwdriver and dig this stuff out.  There was white styrofoam snow flying everywhere.  I finally got most of it out. I saved the little Christmas time picks and pieces.  (I can probably use them for something when that time of year rolls around again.)  I added some dollar store flowers and arranged them as best as I could and hung it on the door.  I didn’t even bother to repaint the thing.  I hung it with a 3M command hook (love those things).  

It definitely looks like spring with all of the bright colors.  I LOVE that it covers up this ugly little diamond shaped window.  That makes me happy. 

I can also change out the floral pieces inside the basket to suit whatever season or holiday.  Easy as Pie!  It is a nice change from the usual wreath.  I may still make a wreath and hang it at the back door but I like having something a little different! 

What do you think?  How are you welcoming spring to your door?
