Cre8time Movement – Easter Mantel

 

I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been up to recently! I'm thrilled to participate in the CRE8TIME movement with Michaels Craft Stores this month. Have you heard of CRE8TIME?

It’s a movement devoted to helping you reclaim your creativity.

Finding time to do what you love.

Make creativity a regular part of your busy life.

You don’t want to miss this super short video…it will inspire you!

It made me stop and think “WHY” I love to create.

I love to make pretty things. I always have, ever since I can remember.

It is my “me” time. I love to improve my talents. I love to create with my family and friends. It helps me to relax and I absolutely love the feeling of accomplishment when I’m finished with a project.

For my CRE8TIME projects I had “Spring” on the mind. So today I’m sharing my Easter mantel with you and showing you how to create this super easy Easter egg wreath! Perfect for beginners, too.

I have an old window that usually hangs out in my garage and I had the perfect project in mind. I headed to my Michael’s store and grabbed a couple of bags of plastic Easter eggs, a grapevine wreath, and went to work for 10 minutes!

Yes, this wreath took me all of 10 minutes to create…

 

Supplies

Plastic Easter Eggs – approx 30 eggs {I used the pearlized ones from Michaels}

Grapevine Wreath

Glue Gun & Glue Sticks

Burlap Ribbon {or any ribbon to hang your wreath!}

Step 1. Start gluing on the Easter eggs in a random pattern.

Step 2. Cut off glue strings.

Step 3. Hang with a ribbon.

See why it only took me 10 minutes? I told you it was really simple!

Other Easter goodies on the mantel…

A glitter bunny….isn’t he cute?!

Speckled Easter eggs in a basket…

…and I whipped up these simple floral arrangements! Found the milk jug tin and flower watering can in the floral section at Michaels with these gorgeous, bright flowers…

I slapped some vinyl on the front and I love how they add to the mantel!

 

So tell me…

Why do YOU create?
