Rainbow Wreath for Easter

 

Easter is coming up soon, March 31st this year.  I hope yours is filled with many blessings and much love!


This was such a fun project!  My DIY Vine Wreath is the perfect base.  I love that it was created with honeysuckle from my very own garden.  Click HERE to see all the details and make your very own!  We all want to be more sustainable, right?



Rummaging through my crazy full craft room, I stumbled across some dusty, plastic Easter eggs from who-knows-when.  They hopped into a mesh lingerie bag and took a one-hour ride in the top rack of my dishwasher.  What pretty colors!




Once these choices were made, the rest was pretty simple.  I laid out a pattern with the colors that I liked.  Each egg was attached the DIY Vine Wreath with hot glue.  Since no wreath is completely flat, it took some experimenting to get the eggs somewhat symmetrical.



Next was the bow.  So, it's confession time.  The white ribbon was chosen without wearing classes and I thought it said "Hippity Hoppity" when it actually says "hip hip hooray".  OOPS!  The colors are perfect, though, so I just went with it!  Two loopy bows were created in denim and "hip hip hooray" white ribbon then wired together.  The bow was also attached with hot glue.


I love the vibrant colors against our stone cottage!


Happy Easter from our one acre farm!

Have you ever been enjoying a nice, quiet day of crafting, then BAM your jar of ModPodge falls off the table, splatters across the floor, and onto one of your favorite toss blankets?  Well, that happened to me right in the middle of this project.  Talk about a big, sticky mess!  Not to worry, though.  We have hardwood floors.  First, a dish towel was used to mop up most of the glops.  I had the thought to use rug cleaner on the afghan and also sprayed foam across the glue swirls on my floor.  The toss blanket made a round in my washing machine and came out unscathed.  A quick wet mop restored my hardwood floors.  Now, back to my nice quiet day of crafting.

Friendsmas celebrations are such a wonderful way to spend an evening with girlfriends!  The plan for this year's party, besides snacks, is for each person to bring a $10 gift and we will swap.  It's nice to have a small something for everyone, though, so this is what I'm adding to the mix.

Participating in craft challenges is just that.  A challenge!  I love how each one helps me think in different ways and pulls me out of any ruts I might be experiencing.  This one is all about sustainability.  For me that means:  Minimize purchases.  Upcycle wherever possible.  This time, I even grew something from seed!
