Good Morning!
How was your weekend?
As you can see from my recovery picture, mine was pretty awesome. :o)
So, do you remember my plastic egg wreath from the other day?
Please excuse the wreath hanger, I am working on it as we speak. :o) |
Yep, that's the one!
Can you say impulse craft, because that is totally what this was.
It all started when I got off work one morning and headed to Wal-Mart.
Random Fun Fact: I have often gone shopping after working all night, then woke up the next afternoon with absolutely no recollection of what I purchased that morning.
This was definitely one of those shopping trips.
I woke up later that afternoon only to discover this.

Yep, a box of 220 Plastic Eggs!
Seriously?
What was I thinking?
I know I had wanted a few plastic eggs to put in my new apothecary jar, but 220, that a lot of eggs!
So, what is a girl to do with 220 pastel plastic eggs?
Well, make a wreath of course! :o)
So, I grabbed a straw wreath frame from Michaels, and started hot gluing.
I ended up using a ton of glue, because not only did I glue the eggs to the wreath, but I also glued them to each other for added support.
It was a good idea, but it did make the process a lot more tedious than it needed to be.
Oh, and in this case the more tedious I was the more time I spent gluing.
By the time I got to the end I had a few gaps to fill in...which explains the bow...
That actually turned out a lot better than I had originally anticipated.
So, even though it was a tedious and time consuming impulse
craft, I
kind of like how it turned out...
or at least it's growing on me. :o)
So, what do you think?
Happy Monday!
