Last Easter, I wanted to make an Easter egg wreath, so I bought the wreath form but never got around to buying the plastic eggs. After Easter, I bought eggs on sale and put them in my spring decorating box and was so pleased with myself that I had everything I needed to make the wreath. Fast forward to this year:  I realize Easter is coming, we’re i the middle of  stalled redecorating/reorganizing project, and I can’t find the wreath. I’ve got the eggs, mind you, but no wreath form. So I finally go back into the attic, pull out multiple boxes of Christmas decorations, put them back in, look in a closet, and finally resgin myself to the fact that there won’t be an Easter egg wreath this year, either. The next day, in a moment of clarity, I remember that I put the wreath form *on top* of the purple storage container that houses my spring decorations and realize that it must have fallen off and is indeed in the attic.  So back up the stairs I go, pull out the Christmas boxes again and magically find the wreath form.

Then it takes me three more days to get motivated to actually start making the wreath.

And then I realize I don’t have enough hot glue sticks OR Easter eggs.

So after acquiring said items, I start making the wreath and realize that I didn’t put the eggs close enough together and then it’s time to get Molly from school and then we have an appointment and then…well, you get the idea.  So the unfinished wreath sat on our very limited  kitchen counter for a few days.

Until yesterday. I finally finished that sucker. Molly loves it, which is the only reason I made it in the first place.

Last night, I wanted to get a picture of the wreath before it got dark, so as we were getting ready to read Molly her bedtime books, I grabbed the camera. She saw me get the camera and ran after me, calling “Cheese!” Obviously we don’t take many pictures around here.

When I asked her what she thought of the egg wreath, she said, “Cute!” {But I think she’s the cute one!}

So now that that project is complete, I guess I should get around to finishing one of the other 2 zillion half-finished projects.  What do you think?  Have you made a wreath like this before? What else do you do to decorate for spring and Easter?
