Peeps! (a headband and a craft fail)

Peeps bunny headband slide

When the Iron Craft Peeps Challenge was issued, I knew just what I'd do. Peeps Pops! They were adorable...in my mind. In reality? Er...more on that later. So I had to come up with a back up project. I whipped up this Super Simple headband using felt, a brown fabric marker, card stock, and a super strong glue stick.  I also used a pair of scissors, Made's Peeps Bunny template, and a plastic gold headband.

Makeover Monday: From Easter Egg to Egg Salad for One {recipe}

A super-yummy sandwich.

Ever wonder what to do with all of those Easter eggs once the festivities are over? Well, I made a delicious egg salad. And, since I'm the only one who'll eat it around here, I made Egg Salad for One. Technically two. This recipe makes 1/2 cup, so there's enough for two sandwiches.

Happy Easter! - some eggs and a sun catcher garland

Easter eggs are just so much fun! We only did a few, so I had to use a few plastic stand-ins.

This is the first year my daughter Zara has been able to dye Easter eggs and we had a blast doing them. Here are a few of my favorites.

Coconut Easter Cookes {recipes}

Strangely enough, these look so much better in the photo than in real life.

 I have been so inspired by Sugar Belle's beautifully decorated cookies that I thought I'd give it a try. *Cue canned laughter* Decorating cookies is a new skill-set for me...and I need more practice. Here's a hint: When the professional says to use a decorating bottle for each color, do it.

A Dressed-Up Hair Clip

Sparkly and pink! So perfect for Zara.

Here is a sweet little hair clip I whipped up for Zara for Easter. As always, it's Super Simple and super cute.

Makeover Monday: Easter Basket Tutu Redo

From plain jane to just plain adorable!

Easter's coming up. No big shocker there. Happens every year. This year Zara needed an Easter basket that goes with her beautiful pink dress. The green one from last year just wasn't going to cut it. The white one worked, but it was a bit plain. So what does a mama with a glue gun do? Make a tutu, of course.

Super Simple Easter Decor (Peeps!)

Peeps = Instant Cute

This week's Iron Craft challenge posed an interesting question. Bunny or Chick?  Peeps, that is. The challenge was to make something, anything, out of Peeps. I knew almost immediately what I wanted to do. I had two candle jars, one small and the other large, with just enough space in between the two for some...you guessed it...Peeps! So I made a candle holder/vase. Seems obvious to me. Oh, and I chose bunnies.

Peeps Cupcakes

Peep, peep, peep, etc.

Every year we go to Grandma's for Easter and we all bring something to share. I haven't decided what I'm making for Easter this year, but here's what I did last year. I thought I was being so clever making Peeps cupcakes. Yeah...someone bought nearly identical ones from the grocery store.
