A Welcome Wall Pocket

Here's the wall pocket I found yardsaling ($3) a couple weeks ago. I decided since it's black & the door's black, I needed a pop of color to really bring this area alive, so I got some pretty faux red orchid stems & a really pretty yellowy lily, added a few other fillers & here it is. I love the little birdsnest. Hobby Lobby had their florals on sale this week, so I got it all for 50% off...gotta love that. I had to find a way to hang this on the metal door & found a magnet hook at Michaels that worked perfectly.
We are hosting a dessert party here at our house this Sunday night for a few neighbors (for us all to meet & get to know each other) & I wanted something pretty on the door. We've invited about 15 families, so we'll see how this turns out. I think we may have a house full! I'm making a homemade New York style cheesecake with fresh strawberries & everyone is bringing their favorite desserts. I'll let you know how it goes!
