Ombre Easter Egg Garland

We were giddy when we saw these perfectly colored plastic
eggs at Target.  Perfectly pastel and perfectly ombre.
Even better they were only $1 per pack.
This is pretty simple.
Arrange your eggs in the order you want them to be strung.
Make sure your eggs all face the same direction, and choose plastic
eggs that have holes in the middle.
Next take your twine, or string, and string through the holes.
Add as few or as many as you want.
We think they turned out "egg-stra" cute.
 Two rows strung and hung by washi tape on the front door. 
 They add so much fun brightness to the door.
Instantly felt like Spring when we hung them up.l
Could Target have done any better with the colors?
We think not.

We also love our ombre plastic eggs in a large glass jar.
Easter spring up on us so fast, but thank goodness it doesn't take
much to decorate for Spring, especially with easy projects like these.

Just Plane Easy.

Pom Pom garland

The great thing about making your own garlands is you
can custom make them for any holiday, event or party you want.
We love twine in any color.
What you will need:
Pom Poms in your choice of colors
Needle
Thread
 We chose green and white for St. Patty's Day.
{We wanted more of a Kelly green but could only
 find this more limey green}
We bought them at Hobby Lobb.
 I tried to thread it with my twine but my needle was too small to fit the twine through.
  I think it will totally work with a bigger needle.
So I just strung mine with thread.
Thread your Poms and make sure you hit the middle.
 Strung so cutely on my chalkboard.
 You won't exactly need "luck" for this little project,
it will be Just Plane Easy.
So dress up your house for St. Patrick's Day
so you don't get pinched.

I made a few different strands of these in several lengths and colors.
  The shorter ones I am going to string between
2 dowels for a cake topper.
This will be super quick and easy for a colorful project.
