Earlier this week I was commenting that my mantel needed more “Easter-izing”. I made it my goal to “Easter-ize” it.
I love the result! I should probably be making it a priority to exercize as much as I Easter-ize. To see the Easter Bunny Garland tutorial, click here
I had some left over jars from a craft project gone bad… Yes, that happens to me too, (and no, I don’t want to talk about it…it’s just too soon).
The good news is that I found a use for them! I hot glued some glass candle sticks from Goodwill to the bottom of the jars to make “pedestal jars” for my Easter eggs!
I picked the cheapest pink blossoms I could find from Michael’s selection of blooms. I think they were originally $3.99 a stem, but they were 50% off..whoot, whoot! I bought 4 sprigs for each blue vase. I found the little hanging Easter eggs at Goodwill for $1 (for 12 of them)! Score!!!
Spring has sprung at the Hoff’s house! (I don’t care what the weather man says.)
I hope you have a great day! 🙂

LOVE those vases, April! And the leftover jars glued to a pedestal? Smart cookie! Don’t worry… I won’t ask what happened 😉 Anywho, very cute 🙂
April Hoff says
Thanks, Shandy! I love it when it all just comes together (and you can turn a craft-disaster into a success)!
Shandy says
I’ve had my fair share of those! LOL
