How to Make a Grave Blanket: Foam Form + Sheet Moss + Greening Pins

Grave blanket = foam form (heart, cross, rectangle) covered in greenery.

Materials

• Foam form (craft store / florist) – styrofoam-like but sturdier.
• Sheet moss – loosen by pulling thin.
• Greening pins (staple-shaped, twisted top).

Steps

1. Pin moss over entire form (don't over-pin—leave room for stems).
2. Insert greenery around edges first (straight or angled).
3. Layer inward, covering previous stems.
4. Bow last: attach to wood pick, insert at top center.

Greenery

Evergreen boughs (fir, pine, cedar), holly, magnolia, boxwood. Cut stems 6–8".
