Easter Egg Tree

Remember this Candy Corn Tree I made on the cheap?  
I upcycled it into this:


Easter Egg tree tut
 
D-I-Y:

Supplies:
Branches: from your yard {or neighbor's yard, heehee}
Eggs: dollar store, $1 per 10 pack...score!
Vase: free! {Remember this post?? Recycled it} (:
Ribbon: free, already had!
Directions:
*Push branches into vase.
*Pull eggs off stick, replace with ribbon.
{Tip: it's easier to tie the ribbon in a knot first THEN shove it back in the hole with the same stick you just took out, make sense?}
*Hang eggs from branches.
*Any leftover? Shove them onto branches to mimick leaves.
Super easy project for about $2 total.  Enjoy!

  10. I kinda like the idea of Manly Monday... I could certainly learn how to change the oil ;) And let's be honest, there's not a whole lotta craft blogs out there teaching that! *B
