Today was a productive, busy day. Love days like this! Other than the general basics (dishes, laundry, floors, toys), I got so much more accomplished! Went grocery shopping and got a meal together for friends who came to join us for dinner tonight. Did some great crafts. Got a lot of the little stuff done. Looking around, I feel like I moved mountains! First craft I did was a fun "Lucky" project. Super simple. Very fast. I bought shamrock scrapbook paper at Hobby Lobby, used Elmer's glue and wrote "Lucky", sprinkled on glitter. When it was dry, I added some ribbon to the corners. Stuck it in a frame and I've got new art work. Next project was one the kids helped with. This project took a lot longer, but only because of all the eggs that need to be cut out. Still really easy though! First step, go to Home Depot or Lowe's and get a bunch of paint color samples. Next, trace ovals on samples. Cut out all the ovals. I did them three sheets at once to same time. After those were complete, I traced a large circle (my dog's water bowl) and cut out a "doughnut" on which to glue the eggs. For the sake of my sanity, I put the glue on the ring and then let the kids stick the eggs on. When the first layer was done, I just added more glue. While they were sticking eggs down, I tied a bow. When the eggs were completed, I used tacky glue to adhere the bow. A bit of advice....look at how many eggs I made, and cut it by half. We could probably make one and half more wreathes with the left over eggs. While the wreath was drying, we started on some cute bunny candy pockets for friends. Our friends came over while the ears were drying, so we had to put them in hiding and will finish them tomorrow! And Sunshine only mentioned it once in front of them....She's great with surprises.
