Easter Fun

Just wanted to re-post some of my fun Easter projects from last year.  Hope you enjoy:)

Granny's Handmade Quilt

Hello everyone!! I just wanted to share the beautiful quilt my husband's grandmother made for our youngest daughter.  She has handmade and quilted each one of us our own quilt as well as all of her other grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  This one was just finished for our 3 year old.  Granny says that it will be her last one.  She just can't see to do it anymore.  She is 85 years old.  We will certainly cherish each of our beautiful quilts.  I will try to share some pics of the other ones soon:)  Have a great weekend!!

One side note- Did you know you can follow through GFC using your Twitter Account? TRUE, it's definitely an option!

Ok, so let's get to the party, shall we?

Valentine's Day Gift Idea

Mason Jars filled with treats of your choice.  I filled mine with chocolate covered pretels with Valentine's sprinkles.  Great teacher gift:)

Valentine Snow Globe

So I am lovin' the mason jar snow globes these days.  I made one for Christmas and then I saw one for Valentine's Day from Whipperberry  and fell in love.  I made my own.  I like the one from Whipperberry better, but mine will do for now.  Enjoy:)

 

Valentine Topiary

This was my Valentine Topiary from last year.  I thought it turned out really cute.  I made it from red streamers that I used to make rolled tissue rosettes.  I used floral moss to cover the bottom.  Hope you enjoy:)

BBQ Chicken Bites

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!

We just tried our own version of a BBQ Chicken Bites recipe that I got from Pinterest.  It was from Add a Pinch.com

The only thing that I did different was, I just squeezed out some Sweet Baby Ray's on each one and sprinkled some shredded cheese on half of them.  I wasn't sure if the kids would eat them with the cheese sprinkled on them.  They loved them!!!  You should try them some time:)  You can find the recipe here.
