Just Veggin...

This adorable bunny and directions can be found can be found over at Craftown.com.

I’ve been looking for a cute bunny to put on my front door for Easter… and I only have a little over a week to make it! I better get on the ball!

They include the patterns and all the directions on how to make it. It looks like a fairly simple project. Hubby Frank has a lot of wood scraps around so he should be able to come up with enough wood for me.

I love the face on this bunny! I hope I’m able to duplicate it!

Make sure you stop over at Craftown.com to check out all their Easter crafts from easy to Advanced ideas!

Hoppy Easter!

Easter Egg Wreath

My mom made this wreath at the Senior Center today for her apartment door. Didn't she do a great job? They bought a whole bunch of different size plastic eggs, then hot glued them onto a straw wreath. They do crafts about once a month and always seem to come up with unique ideas.

Napkin Applique Easter Eggs

These make beautiful eggs and are fun to make. The hardest part is blowing the egg out the hole. We're planning to make these tonight!

What You Need

  • Raw eggs
  • Straight pin
  • Sponge brush
  • School glue (like Elmer's)
  • Decorative paper napkins (flower or Easter designs are nice)
  • Paper plate
  • Wax paper


How To Make It

  1. Prick egg at both ends with straight pin. Make the hole on the bottom a little larger.
  2. Blow the egg out.
  3. Wash off egg and dry.
  4. Put some glue on a paper plate.
  5. Divide the napkin into layers. Keep only the top decorated layer.
  6. Tear the napkin into about 2" or smaller pieces.
  7. Sponge brush glue on part of the egg.
  8. Lay a piece of the napkin, right side up, over the egg. Smooth.
  9. Continue covering egg with glue and napkins.
  10. Finish with one coat of glue over entire egg to seal.
  11. Let dry completely.
  12. Use your eggs in baskets, table decorations, or any place you would like.
