This sconce will look great in your space, whether it be your home or office, as it adds the perfect touch of spring.

Simple Spring Flower Sconce
Supplies needed:
Burlap canvas
Plastic storage container
Hot glue, glue gun
Fresh or silk flowers
We were able to find all of these items at our local crafting or hobby store. You can most likely find the small plastic storage containers where the glass items such as canning jars are sold. You can find the small burlap canvas pieces in with art and painting supplies.
Directions:
1. Begin by removing the lid of the container. You won’t be needing it so feel free to recycle it.
2. Apply a generous dab of glue to the back of the container.
3. Press the container to the centre of the canvas. If you wish, you can measure before hand so you know you get it perfectly centred. This is up to you however, as we chose to just eye ball ours.
4. Press the container until the glue has dried and it is secure in place.
5. Fill the container with water. Add blooms of your choice.
Your sconce is now ready to hang! A simple nail or tack should hold the lip of the canvas frame just fine. As you can see, it adds the perfect pop of spring!
Gather your supplies and give this simple spring flower sconce a try. Make a pair if you are so inclined or even give one of these as a gift! It is a fun and frugal craft that can’t be beat!

I love this idea! I can use all the pretty touches of spring I can get. 🙂
Thanks so much for linking up this week!
This is such a great idea, love simple quick, and inexpensive ways to perk up my humble abode. When I first looked at it I wondered how you could keep a glass container with water on the canvas. Aha, you’re so smart, you used plastic. Due to our very dry climate, glue has a habit of coming undone so I’d put hole thru canvas to put some ribbon or? around the container, thru the canvas for little more security, dress it up little more. Glad you shared this great idea. Happy days. had to print this out so i didn’t forget it.
This is such a beautiful yet simple craft! I would love to give/receive this as a gift!
