Me: "Why? what?"

DIY Easter Egg Garland instructions 

I can never get too technical when I do something or I just get bored. I have to just go with the flow so this is how mine turned out! I love repurposing and hoarding ribbon (probably the only thing I do save) so the ribbon wreath is a combination from James' baby hospital gift and my sister Staci's pink ribbon from her wedding flowers. Staci's ribbon is on the garland too along with the Blackwell's pink wedding flowers- I think Spencer Blackwell's? the last wedding I did actually.... Check out my newly painted door and new door handle too- I did all myself!

The "Florist" in me then had to decorate my flower pot so I found some chopsticks in the kitchen drawer made the easter egg hole a little bigger... added some chicks... and walah!

I like to do arts and crafts and have tried to make more time lately for things like card making, holiday decor, sketching, decorating, sewing etc... I takes me so happy when I make time for these things in my life!
