Happy Vee and I are both under-the-weather, but it's given us a good excuse to hang out in our pajamas and lay low. He's busy watching and reenacting CARS, the movie and I've been playing around with paper, punches & eggs.
Inspired by these pomander balls by Pizzazzerie and these kissing balls from The Idea Room, and with a little change in shape, they became the perfect decor for Spring & Easter.
I found the styrofoam eggs
at JoAnns
for some size perspective
and here's the flowered egg on my mantel
{I didn't include a tutorial because Pizzazzerie has already posted an excellent one. Check it out here.}
I hope you're having a nice weekend. The Mister got one of the computers up and running-- yahoo! So I'll be back to my somewhat regular post schedule ;) Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

ReplyDeleteErin - Do it! It takes a while (an hour-ish for me), but it's relaxing... especially with some good music on in the background :)
Those are beautiful!

ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous. So many store-bought decorations for Easter leave a lot to be desired, but this egg is so sophisticated...
