A PART OF THIS WEEK AROUND MY TABLE
This was another crafty week for the Lawrence girls. We definitely had Easter on the mind, and we were getting ready for Mom's (what my girls call my mom) birthday! Queen E came up with the idea of making Mom her own handmade Easter basket with eggs for her birthday! Again, this was another idea I had to really think through so we would come out with product that not only matched the idea in Queen E's mind but also be functional and last for more than 5 minutes!
This is how we did it...
I free handed an outline of a basket on the back of three sheets of thick card stock/cardboard - you can get this from Michael's. The kind we chose just so happened to have a TON of glitter on it ;)! Once we had all three basket shapes cut out we stapled them together.
We added a bottom (not my best work!).
Then we made the grass
While I cut the grass the girls decorated each individual egg!
Queen E wrote the card all by herself!
The final product!
This week we also baked Mom's birthday cake
Of course we decorated Easter eggs!
Join the fun:






What a cute basket! I can't believe you made Easter grass. You are officially WAY more crafty than me.
