Getting Crafty

Yesterday, after dinner, while hanging out on Pinterest I came across the cutest wreaths. And my wheels started turning.

Although I didn't have exact the materials needed in a particular project, I had a few things in the attic to make a few adjustments... and a really cute Easter wreath for our door.

I started with an old wreath that has seen its share of Christmas'. Then I remembered a bag of plastic Easter eggs we've had for a few years as well. There were actually about four dozen! In the last basket my now 23 year old received was a little blue bunny. Those items, plus a glue gun ended in a really cute wreath if I may say so myself.

I haven't had the time or the want, to start a craft project in a very long time. Now I'm looking for my next project!

Eggceptional Easter Egg Decorating For Teens

Hipity-hopity Easter's on its way! Although my youngest children are now teenagers, they still want to decorate Easter eggs. It just means we have to be more "sophisticated" in our methods. The dyeing methods we used when they were little kids are no longer "cool."

I went on an Easter egg hunt of my own to find the coolest, and fun egg decorating tips worthy of a teenagers short attention span, and need for something different.  This is what I found:

Kool Aid Tye Dye Eggs

Better Homes & Gardens Easy and creative egg dyeing

I'm really excited about decorating eggs with my girls. Maybe we'll invite a few of their friends over for an eggceptional time. Pun intended!
