Here is a quick and simple Easter decoration that I made.
First, I went out and found the perfect branchy twig. Then I put it in a small candle holder and filled it with small stones that I had lying around from an old bamboo plant that I once had, before I killed it.
Last, I hung these little eggs on it. I bought them at Michael’s craft store for .99 for a pack of 6. They already had the ribbons on them.
Baby Smurf kept rearranging the eggs and the twig kept falling over, so I finally hot glued it upright in place.
It’s really pretty. The picture does not do it justice.
That’s pretty darn sweet. I wan’t to make things like that but there doesn’t seem to be much point without kids. Like, the last time I got a christmas tree – I put some lights up and the ten or eleven ornaments I own and then I realized that that kind of stuff is no fun without family around. SOrt of like cooking for yourself. Bleh.
Yeah, I always wish the kids weren’t always messing up my pretty decorations, but then I realize that if they weren’t around, it would seem kind of pointless to have them in the first place.
