Easter bucket makeover!

March 27, 2012 By: Melanie

Rather than collecting a new basket every year on Easter, our girls put out the same basket the night before for the Easter bunny to fill and hide.  We have just been using those $.97 buckets from Walmart, and we thought it would be fun to customize them.  I rummaged up felt in Springy colors, fabric and ribbons, some puff paint, and of course the trusted glue gun.  I also found these fun dragonfly/butterfly felt stickers.

 Each girl picked their colors and I hot glued the felt right to the plastic bucket.  I cut out some eggs in white felt and the girls decorated them with the paint.  We wrapped the handles in fabric or ribbon too.  Now they are personalized and textured and colorful! 

 Happy Easter!

Easter egg topiary

March 26, 2012 By: Melanie

This a fun Easter decoration I made a couple years ago.  (Okay, it’s like my only Easter decoration that makes it out each year.)  Because it’s a couple years old, I don’t have step by step pictures; but I thought it might be share-worthy anyway.  It was cheap and simple to make.  I got the eggs and the pot from the Dollar store!  I think any eggs and any pot would work!  All you need is a foam topiary form from the craft store, a pot, some eggs, moss or Spanish moss (which is what I used) and of course, a glue gun!

Place and glue the eggs and then fill in with the moss until you’ve burnt your fingers enough it looks just right!  How do you decorate for Easter?
