Easter, Spring crafts


I found this adorable table decoration on Tip Junkie with instructions, tutorial on DIY showing how to make it.  I will be heading to my local Michael's store to get the supplies I need and to Bed Bath and Beyond to find a milky white vase.

For the rabbit figurines I have an adorable green bunny figurine and green egg candles I will be using

in my Easter/Spring tablescape and will make the centerpiece with Forsythia, in a white vase, and styrofoam eggs which spell out Happy Easter hanging from the Forsythia .

The supplies I need are

Materials:
  • Creamy white vase (Scour thrift stores/etc.)
  • White ribbon  ( try getting materials at dollar store)
  • Straight pins
  • Deco Art Paint (I used Americana Gloss Enamels in yellow)
  • White bunnies 
  • Paper Mache Eggs x 11 (I used styrofoam eggs)
  • Faux Forsythia (at Michaels )
This is the white vase I am using, the forsythia looked gorgeous with the sun streaming in on the table.
The next step to my version of this project will be to add the eggs hanging on ribbon from the branches of the forsythia. I purchased styrfoam eggs as opposed to the paper mache eggs suggested, hope it works.

I will Paint the styrofoam eggs and than use a sharpie to write each letter that will spell out Happy Easter.
I followed the directions from DIY the picture was from DIY.  

I will post pictures after I complete this craft project, can't wait to start, it's been a long time since I attempted a craft project.
