I thought I would share some blues today.
I painted some little plastic eggs robins egg blue. The flat finish of the paint makes them look more realistic. The cloche and rabbit were thrifting finds.
Next is my naked tree.
I bought the little tree years ago which makes it vintage, ancient. I found a terracotta pot and painted it pale blue and then filled it with a styrofoam plant block. I had some white Easter grass so it went on top.
All it needs is some little decorations. I'm sure I'll find something at the Dollar Tree or Michael's to do the trick.
Finally, I have shared before, my Cottage sign.
It was a scratched up pink and black princess sign at TJ Maxx .I loved the shape. And since there are no princesses around here it needed a make over.
Glad you dropped by and y'all come back!
I'm linking this post to the following meme's. Come join the fun!

I'd love to know how you painted those eggs. One side at a time? I'd make such a mess!

I love the blue colour, just the right shade.
ReplyDeletePlease let us know what you are going to decorate that tree with, I'm sure it will be cute. Me too are running after a two year old and her little sister of tree months.
