How to Make a Mini Mary Garden

Our local moms’ group did this really fun Mini Mary Garden craft on a recent retreat. It was so much fun! Everyone could customize their gardens to include different combinations of rocks, flowers, and moss.

This would be such a fun craft project to do with your women’s group, Bible study group, for teens/tweens in youth group, or a fun “mom and me” project to do with a child.

All of these supplies were generously donated by my local moms group. If you would like to support future videos, you can donate via my Buy Me a Coffee page or purchase something from my art supply wish list: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/amyheyseart
