Well, I am not even going to talk about the weather, because maybe if I ignore it, it will just go away and let spring come back. So, let's just get to the
M5D releases today. I really love Easter and all the soft, pastel and delicate, springy colors that go with it. Memories of fancy dresses, bonnets and white shoes for church, baskets, bunnies, eggs and candy for after church. I have had this Tastefully Simple drink bucket laying around for months just waiting for me to make something out of it, and I have to tell you that my hubby really enjoyed teasing me about creating something for Easter out of a drink bucket. The way I see it is if I could recycle something and help save the earth by re-using, then God would be happy about that, right? Besides, once it was finished, there is no way that you could tell that it used to be a drink bucket. I guess you could give this to a child to collect eggs in or fill with candy and goodies for Easter morning or even use it as a gift basket, but I am displaying mine on my mantle filled with some pretty springy flowers and decorations. I hope you like it. Have any of you done something like this for Easter or another occasion?
Below are some of the other new

Carolyn: Your Easter project is BEEEEAUTIFUL--I love recycling too. What brand of drink container did you use? I'd like to give this a try for 4th of July or some other holiday.
Thanks
