Recycled Easter Eggs
Happy Monday everyone!
Today I want to share my recycled easter eggs. This year I didn't buy any new, I recycled what we had last year. I saw a lot of techniques how to paint eggs and how to decorate. So here is what I came up with to used tissue papers. I love how it turned out. My lil kids had their own too photos next time :)
These are the finished eggs that I decorated.
Plastic easter eggs from last year, I washed it and put it in a ziploc bag.
Used tissue papers, I crumpled them like this..
Then cut a piece to wrap the plastic egg.
Finished wrap with the crumpled tissue papers. Ready to decorate...
I used flowers, fussy yarns, ribbons, button, rhinestones, tulle, crocheted yarns to decorated these easter eggs.
Close up photos of the decorated easter eggs.
This basket I added crepe paper flowers that I made. Ready to put all the decorated eggs in it.
A close up to the flowers I made from crepe papers.

Ok here is my first vintage card. This is my first time to used this technique too. I used old dictionary pages for collage background then used Mode Podge. I made my flower too from the dictionary pages. I added the doily, lace, pearls and buttons for embellishments. I'm so glad I had to try new things that I never did before.

Pink Tissue Paper Topiary
Another post for today. I want to share my very first topiary made out of tissue paper. I love looking all topiary made out of different stuffs. I made this for my mom I'll give it on mother's day. I hope she'll like it. I had fun doing my first topiary :) I love how it turned out.
Here is simple tutorial of my vase. This is a can from Roasted Macadamia nuts.
First I embossed a cardstock then wrapped around it.
Cut a pattern paper like this in the photo then attached around the can.
Then I added the pink flowers. And added the foam inside...
Last I added fussy yarn, ribbon & pearl. This is the finished vase.
And here is my first topiary and vase.
