Easter Time!!



Easter is always a fun time to decorate the house up nice. Easter is a great time to shake off Winter. What better way then to hang flowers in your window. This is a Styrofoam egg hung on a craft fishing wire. I used a needle to pierce through artificial flowers. You can use any type of flower but I believe the smaller the better. I made DOZENS of these and they are strung across every window.









Here are a bundle of Icicle or Carrot boxes strung together to greet the Easter Bunny! The patterns were found HERE and you can have a blast making them. These boxes can be used as small gift boxes too.




In the hallway there are an assortment of Bunnies, Decorated Easter eggs and flowers to welcome in the spring and Easter.  Patterns for these can be found HERE, and HERE.






Here are the cutouts up close. I used my glitter pen (Glitter Gel Glue) to give it a little sparkle. For the squiggly stripes, I used my decorative scissors to cut strips of a contrasting color. I think that the smaller bunnies would be a cute size for a template for sugar cookies as well.





For the most part, It is not hard to decorate your home if you have the right amount of paper to do the job.
And as always,
HAPPY EASTER!
