Sharing...And A Little Ol' Easter Craft

Sharing...

It especially makes my heart swell...

when it happens right here at home.

*****

Our furry neighbors even know how to.

Mama Raccoon came out of hibernation today.

She came right up to my little feeding canoe.

Mr. Stray Kitty (who always has a meal waiting at our home and at Jon's sister's home down the lane)...

Waiting his turn...sharing.

And Emily.

Little sister hasn't been at the top of her list lately.

BUT...Emily bought Laney a book from the school book fair!

She did it on her own...wasn't even asked to.

Little sister...oh how happy she was.

Love watching my older read to my younger.

HOT ROD HAMSTER...Laney LOVED it!

And I always have my eye out...

searching for little pieces of inspiration.

I came across a little Easter Egg Tree over at Dear Lillie.

Love her home, her style.

I wish I could go all white, but my house just wasn't made for all white.

We started with cheap plastic eggs.

I had the girls decoupage them with newspaper and Mod Podge.

While they loved the messy fun,

I enjoy the more intricate aspect.

I glitterized a few,

added ribbons...

old jewelry parts....

and other odds and ends.

I then took a little thread and hot glued it onto an egg!

I then went out in the woods and found a nice limb.

I thought it looked nice in the blue container.

Just a nice way to add a little Easter to our family room!

And the artwork and photos are definitely into sharing the space!
