Every day I look out in my backyard and see my little peach tree in full bloom and it makes me happy...even on cold, gray, rainy days (which I am very grateful for) these pink blossoms shine through. Just a simple reminder that spring is on it's way. So with that, I am ready and inspired to start decorating my home for Easter and spring. I finished my first couple of projects yesterday and I am well on my way to welcoming spring into my home.
I had this idea in my head to create this fat,little bunny and I created it without a pattern (which at times was quite frustrating) It didn't turn out exactly like I had pictured it, she's not perfect (darn perfectionist in me), but it's OK, she's growing on me. And the Easter eggs...I have soooo many plastic eggs lying around that I decided I needed to come up with a way to re-use them. So, I decoupaged them with craft and wrapping paper and added a little ribbon and now they look pretty cute sitting in my little, brown basket. The whole project cost me $1.50(for the basket). Everything else was used from my stash of craft supplies! So here is my kick off to spring...many more fun spring crafts to come!

So many cute ideas!!! I just might have to make a few bunnies, yours turned out ADORABLE!
I love your cute ideas and I also love the fact that spring is close on the heels of winter! I want to make a big fluffy bunny, too! Is it the same pattern we used for the pumpkins? What a creative idea! I guess it's time to decorate for spring and Easter. I'm waiting for your post on the frames so I can get motivated to get my crafts done!
You're bunny is so stinking cute! LOVE IT!
P.S. I'm jealous your trees are blooming--but I do have tulips sticking their heads up!
Yep, same concept as the pumpkins, I just drew the ears and feet, cut and sewed and sewed on the little face.
