Handmade Easter Decor


It is sometimes hard to find decor that works with my pastel style of decorating.


The lack of availability  has forced me to  make many of my decorating accessories.     Not only is it fun to create your own decor......it's budget friendly too!  


I made this simple bunny banner with card stock paper,  printer,  glue,  fabric scraps, and scissors.      (I also made the ruffled wreath you see reflected in the mirror......not a simple project....lol!)


  The pastel carrots you see in the water tank were made by covering orange carrots with fabric scraps.


The windmill is a yard sale find that got a coat of pink paint to make it fit in better with my pastel decor.


There are some details about the carrot makeover on a previous post.....here's the link to it........http://penny-pennystreasures.blogspot.com/2018/02/cabbages-in-metal-tire-swing-and-pastel.html


Cottage style Easter eggs were by far my favorite project.


My inspiration for these super cute fabric eggs came from Kerryanne.


Here is a link to her blog post with all the details on how to make some for yourself!       https://www.shabbyartboutique.com/2015/03/cottage-style-easter-eggs.html


I hope I've given you some inspiration to decorate your home by giving it your own  personal "handmade touch"

  10. Penny,
    I will be playing catch up...... I can't beleive that I have not commented on all these posts. I have been trying to decorate for Easter but I seem to moving at a slower pace than usual. Joe can not help with moving things up and down from the attic because of his fall so I have been doing it all myself and my knee has really been acting up so I am a bit behind in everything..
    Love the banner!! It is precious!!
    Hugs,
    Deb
