Easter Egg Hunt Treat Bags

I've invited some friends over for an Easter egg hunt in a few weeks. I wanted to make some treat bags for the kids on a budget. I found a package of four bags for a dollar at the Dollar Tree. They are called felt bags, however, they are not really felt at all.   You can find them in the arts and crafts section there.  Then I took a cookie cutter I had and traced out some bunny heads on fabric. Then I used some adhesive to attach them to the bags.  
So far I have the bag filled with the a little foam bunny or chick kit that I found at Joann Fabrics for a dollar each. I'm sure I'll be able to find some other goodies for the bag.  You could even use them instead of baskets during an egg hunt.

Thanks for stopping by!

Printers Drawer and Wreath


My parents just gave me their printers drawer. I remember this hanging in our kitchen growing up with all sorts of knick knacks in it. My grandmother has one also in her kitchen still. I took a straw form wreath and wrapped it in jute. Then I added some fabric rosettes and banner with buttons.

I am very excited to have the printers drawer to use for future project. It is going to stay just the way it is because Rob said there is no way it will ever get painted. :)

Lemonade Bottle Bunny

I made this bunny jar from a lemonade bottle I had bought at Whole Foods last week. I simply used some Martha Stewart multi surface paint and painted the inside of the jar. I used some pipe cleaners, scrapbook paper, a small pink pom and and marker to create the bunny.  It's going to be the perfect addition to the spring mantel I'm working on right now. I was inspired by this Halloween Pin.  


It was a quick project done in the first 10 minutes of nap time. Can't beat that. Thanks for stopping by!
