Quick and Easy Easter Garland
I am overly obsessed with using paint color sample cards! I saw a project on Instructables (click here for link) for making an Easter egg garland. I decided to give it a try! I also love Peeps so I wanted to add some cute little bunnies to my garland as well. Here's what I did:
1. Gather your paint sample cards. You will need 2 of each card. I went for colors that I like but you can use more pastel ones if that suits your taste.
2. Print out egg and bunny shapes on card stock. You will use them for your template. You can make your own or use the one I made. Click here for the link to the template.
3. Trace your eggs and bunnies onto the cards. I marked the egg and bunny template to make sure I lined up the white lines on each one. This isn't necessary but it speaks to my OCD so of course I had to :)
4. Cut out all your pieces.
5. String them together. I chose to keep my colors all together and follow a pattern but you can do it any way you like! I used a huge needle and some fishing line to hang mine. I would have used ribbon I think but I didn't have any and this actually ended up really cute!
6. Hang and enjoy!
Let me know if you make this, we always love to see pictures!
Happy crafting!!!
