Happy Easter!

Sorry I've been away for so long.  I was enjoying a wonderful birthday visit from my sister.  The weather has also taken a turn for the better in the past few weeks and it's been hard to stay indoors and do things like write a blog.  However, I did manage to complete a couple of crafts.

The first is an Easter tree complete with ornaments.  I made the tree by gluing a branch onto a piece of scrap wood.  The ornaments I made by hot gluing ribbon to plastic eggs I bought at Hobby Lobby.  Then I wrapped the base in some scrap fabric, embellished with some more ribbon and a few eggs, and fini!

I later added this little felted bunny.  I made him by needle felting over a styrofoam form and then adding pipe cleaner ears, arms, feet and carrot.  

The other project I made is a lost sock board.  I found the idea for this at Somewhat Simple.  She provides a supply list and instructions so I won't repeat here.  I will say that this is a very simple project that is both cute and useful!
