Easter Egg Wreath




Um, I guess I'm a little behind in creating an Easter wreath, but I haven't really gotten around to it until now. I actually finished this up last night (no more excuses), but I'm enjoying it now!

This is just a simple, shabby Easter egg wreath. I'll break down the materials I used...(this was so cheap!)...

- one wreath form ($1 at the lovely Dollar Tree)
- Spanish moss (one bag is $1, also from Dollar Tree)
- plastic Easter eggs (just under $2  for a dozen at Wal-Mart)
- hot glue

I was going to just buy a bag of Easter eggs at the DT, but I found these at Wal-Mart first. These eggs were so cute, I just couldn't pass them up! And bonus, they were already painted!

I started by putting small spots of hot glue on the wreath, and attaching small picks of Spanish moss. This gave the wreath
a little covering.


I then grabbed up the eggs & put a big dab of glue on the backs...


...then attached them to the moss-covered wreath.


Simple, simple, and the cost was under 5 bucks. :)



 Love it!

I hope you are all enjoying your week. We're still using all of our daylight at the end of the day to work in our yard. I picked these yesterday from one of the trees in our back yard...


Our front yard is transforming into a beautiful place right now, thanks to my sweet, hard-working hubby! I am so happy to be marking things off of our to-do list, and making our house our home. We are so blessed to have the home that we do.
We just love it!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! I am excited to be going to my best friend Sheena's bridal shower!!
Love catching up with friends!

    I wanted to ask everyone to do a link on facebook about the Linky Follower Party so we can get more people learning about the party. It just means more followers for all of us.
