It's DIY Wednesday----EASTER EGG WREATH

I'm at the Florida house and we are having a gorgeous day today. I know back home we are predicted to get snow and really cold temps, so I am enjoying every minute I am here.

When I arrived here, and hung up my clothes, there was a sweet little Easter project sitting on a shelf in my closet. I had completely forgotten about a DIY Easter Wreath I had made about 3 years ago. (my sister made one for her door too!) I just love the way this wreath turned out. The pretty pastel display of eggs looks great anywhere. How festive Easter is this? When I saw it I immediately thought...I've got to get this on the blog for all of my Lavender Bouquet friends.


MATERIALS REQUIRED
1- 20 inch straw wreath
130--(approx.) plastic eggs
Ribbon of your choice to hang

I started in the center and secured a fairly even ring of eggs with glue around the complete center. I then worked outward, placing the eggs in places that look pleasing to the eye, trying to keep them uniform in a line....and not to hodpodgey. Use your judgement here.

It's simple and easy, but allow yourself some time to do it. It is time consuming.

I hope you have enjoyed this DIY segment. Please share your photos with us when you complete your wreath. Sending warm thoughts your way---see you Foodie Friday!

DIY-- EASTER FEATHER WREATH & VIGNETTE

I drove to Michaels last week for some inspiration. I was especially thinking about something Easter related. There hanging up in one of the aisles was a very unique looking feather wreath with eggs on
it. I personally thought it was a bit over priced.....so I started dissecting how it was made and what I would need to buy to make it myself.

I decided to buy a round foam ring, a package of eggs, a boa, and a can of adhesive spray.


Step One
Spray the foam ring with adhesive spray on the top of the ring, and wrap with the boa. Press
down to secure it. Let dry. (your fingers get a bit sticky)

Step Two
Strategically place eggs around the perimeter of the wreath, spraying first with adhesive. Press
to secure egg onto wreath. Let dry.

Step Three
Make a bow from any size ribbon or color that makes you happy....and again spray with adhesive.
Let dry.

Step Four
Make a loop with florist wire and stick into the back of the foam wreath for hanging. You can add a bit of adhesive spray to this also to keep it secure. Let dry.

That's it folks! You are done....and here is what my final wreath looks like!
