Our Easter Weekend

April 1, 2013 by Julie 10 Comments

The weather was beautiful for Easter this weekend. We got some rain on Friday night, but we were able to do all the activities that we wanted to. On Good Friday we spent the day at my in-laws. Every year Mother-in-law puts together a wonderful Easter activity. We dyed hard-boiled eggs, hunted plastic eggs full of candy, and had brunch complete with bunny shaped pancakes. Easter Sunday we … [Read more...]

Rice Krispie Treat Nests with M&M Eggs

March 26, 2013 by Julie Leave a Comment

I've been on a kick decorating with eggs and nests this spring. I figured it was time for a spring snack!This is just the regular Rice Krispie recipe that I put into a muffin pan to mold into the nest shape.

So same white wreath base that I finger knit back in February. For Easter I  have added some plastic Easter eggs and a 'Happy Easter' … [Read more...]

Speckled Plastic Easter Eggs and Faux Grass

March 12, 2013 by Julie Leave a Comment

With spring right around the corner I knew it was time to update my snowy mantel for something more springy. I saw a tutorial recently for 'faux grass'. She had snipped up some pine needles and used them as grass for some decorations. I thought 'I've got lots of pine trees in my yard, I can do that'! And so I did. Then I had also seen a tutorial for some beautiful speckled eggs. I loved the … [Read more...]

Easter egg craft

April 5, 2012 by Julie Leave a Comment

Since Easter is this weekend I figured I needed to make an Easter decoration. I've been wanting to make some crochet Easter Egg and I decided they could be the centerpiece for the table. I used the crochet egg pattern from Lion Brand yarn and I got the idea to paint a pot with chalkboard paint (although since I had chalkboard spray paint I just ended up spraying the entire pot). I gathered … [Read more...]
