In honor of spring and the impending Easter holiday, I have scoured many of my favorite blogs to come up with some fun ideas. There are some decorating ideas and I even threw in a craft idea that you can do with your kiddies!! Enjoy!!
My sweet little lady and I are going to make some jelly bean bracelets this weekend. If you would like to make some jelly bean bracelets to give as gifts, you need to check out Gourmet Mom on the Go and her jelly bean bracelet toppers.
Jennwa from Ramblings of a Crazy Woman shows you how to decorate your home using inexpensive plastic eggs! Check out her blog for the photo above and a few other ideas!
I really, really, really like this wreath! I like its' natural look and the eggs look like they are made of chocolate. It looks delicious!! Jaime at Paint Til You Faint was inspired by a wreath she found at Pottery Barn and decided to make it herself.
Isn't this a fun wreat? Cindi at This is My Life... invited a group of girlfriends over and they each created their own wreath using plastic eggs! This would be a fun and inexpensive craft for a girls night out. Any takers? This Friday perhaps? Call me...
I love, love, love these!! If a friend of mine out in blogger land decided to make some of these, I would not be upset. I am not even sure why I love these because I hate, hate, hate peeps!! Of course, they only think I might like better than a yellow peeps garland would be...
Dana from Made designed the peeps bunting! Brilliant!! The directions for making the peeps garland can be found at V & Co.
Your Girlfriend,
Michelle
Just a warning if you haven't done the bracelets yet...I tried to do that as a party craft in Aubrey's preschool class, and let's just say it did not go as well as we thought it would. The jelly beans were sticky. We even tried freezing them first (husband's suggestion)! So good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I can't help but think you were referring to me for the peeps bunting. :D I have this crazy notion right now though that I'm going to make my kids' Easter outfits...so we'll see!
Hey Jen!! I did do a bracelet with Maddie last night for practice. We used an actual needle and dental floss. It actually was pretty painless and she liked making them. As for the bunting, I didn't have anyone in mind, but if any of my friends were to make one, I would have to put my money on you and your mad sewing skills. :o) I saw that you posted the super cute onesie with the bunny on it. Too cute!!
