Easter Eggs

I found these beauties at the DI. Apparently, someone was using them as Christmas lights I painted the eggs with pastel colors. Next, I sprayed some adhesive onto the eggs and rolled them in suguar (I saw this on another blog and thought it was a great idea). Next, I hot glued a piece of ribbon on the egg top. I then hot glued a button on top of the ribbon to give the egg a little somethin' extra.
I am going to hang these on my blossom tree once Easter gets closer.

HERE is another cute Easter Egg idea.
HERE are some more fabric eggs.

Tree Blossoms

Remember these tree branches? Since spring is just around the corner, I thought I would add some pink blossoms to the branches to make them more spring friendly. While at Dollar Tree I found some cute spring blossoms.

I glued blossoms on the twigs with hot glue.

Here are some cute twigs. I think I will add some birds to mine as well.

DIY Apothecary Jars

I absolutely love apothecary jars. I have looked in stores for these jars, but most of them are between $20-$70. Who has that kind of money? I have seen a few DIY variations of these jars on various blogs. I was inspired by one blogger who took a candle stick, a glass jar (preferably with a lid) and E-6000 glue (found at Roberts or Hobby Lobby) and made their own jars. So following those directions I made my own. I searched high and low at various DIs for jars with lids. Finally after weeks maybe even months of searching, I found what I wanted.

Take the candle stick and apply the E-6000 glue to the rim.
Place the jar on top of the candle stick.
Put something heavy on top of the jar/candle stick and let dry.
Here's your jar.
Fill it with some fillers. I chose green things because of St.Patricks Day.

Here is my table showing all of my decorations.

A Little Bit of Luck

While visiting my Dollar Tree store, I saw a shelf full of heart shaped wreaths. I thought to myself, "I can make a shamrock with those." A few days later I was at the American Fork DI and saw two rolls of green fabric. I knew I could use those for something, and heck each one was .50. After brainstorming, I came up with this grand idea...
See how to make it below:

Take your three heart wreaths
and your green fabric
and start wrapping it around each heart.
I cut a stem from a round foam wreath, like so.
Attach the stem to the two side hearts with hot glue. Wrap the fabric around the hearts and stem until covered. Try to use the hot glue only on the back.
After attaching the stem and wrapping it, attach the top heart with hot glue and wrap the fabric around each wreath until secure.
I bought the Luck thing at Dollar Tree. The original hanging said "Luck of the Irish." I cut the word LUCK off, and added some embellishments.
I already had the square wreath, so I attached the shamrock to the wreath with jute string.
So easy, cheap and cute!
