Easter Projects

Nothing like waiting til last minute. Here's a look at the Easter crafts that I made this past week. We'll get to enjoy them for a week anyways! =)

I bought this glass jar at TJ Maxx for $10! I absolutely love it. I plan on adding something festive each month. For April I bought some paper mache goose eggs at Hobby Lobby for $0.34 each! (Love the 1/2 off items) A little craft paint and there you go!

Another Hobby Lobby find....$2 Easter egg wall plaque with craft paint, once again. Anybody see a pattern here?
And my fave....the boys' Easter baskets. I absolutely LOVE Pottery Barn, but hello I'm not going to spend $40 for a basket with a liner, so I made my own! My sweet MIL embroidered them for me. I keep her practiced up!

Valentine's Day Jars

I needed a gift for Trevin to give his teachers for Valentine's Day that was unique and special. I've seen painted mason jars before and thought they were sooo cute. So I decided to give it a try. Here's what I came up with!


I wish I would have used a different paint that wouldn't chip so easy. Any suggestions?

Project Overload

I know that some of you bloggers put me to shame when it comes to completing projects. But hey, I work full time and have two precious kiddos at home. So to complete 3 projects within a weekend is major progress for me! =) Here's a look at my latest work!!
