What WE did...

So while the girls were off investigating "scat" Marley and I decided to do Easter decorating crafts.
We started at the dollar store. We found these great little hangable sparkle foam eggs, two little baskets, and some green plant foam. So each craft was about 3 dollars. We had hunted out some branches yesterday in the rain and set them out to dry.

Here is Marley painting the branches white.


Here she is putting the branches into their green plant foam. We set the foam in there with a couple inches short of the basket so there was room for the rocks. Also I stuffed some paper bag pieces in the sides to keep the foam and branches from moving.


And the final product. We made two. One for the dining room table and one for the family room. We put rocks over the foam and paper (found outside) and hung eggs from the branches. And wah laa. (I saw someone spell voila that way the other day and have loved the spelling ever since. lol.)
