Spring Decor

A sweet and feminine mini hanger for bridal shower favors, spring brunches or spring home decor. This project was incredibly quick and easy. Simply cover the hanger with pattern paper and ink the edges of the paper. Use the resin frame to trace a piece of paper, cut out and glue on the back of the frame. Adhere the resin sparrow on the paper inside the frame. Wrap the pink and white spring around top of hanger and fasten brooch to the top.
