Craft: Framed Dried Fern
I bought this old frame at a garage sale several years ago for $1 and then I pressed a fern between several pages of newspaper and weighted it with books. When completely dry, I mounted it with sewing thread onto some mat board and inserted in frame. This particular frame has a convex glass but you would not need that because the fern lies flat. Makes a very inexpensive addition to an arrangement.

That really has a lot of charm! I like it a lot! It would really work well with my decorating scheme!
