Easter Egg Garland

I'm a sucker for easy crafts...with four young(ish) kiddos at home, they can't be too complicated, require too much time or unique supplies. (I also live in a rural area, with no access to craft supply stores!) So, when I come across a craft that I can whip up in a few minutes I'm excited! I can't remember where exactly I heard about this craft (maybe Bethany?), but here is my version!

Step 1: Gather paint samples from your local paint supply store.


Step 2: Trace an egg on the back side of your paint samples. I happened to have an egg cookie cutter, but I think you could make a stencil out of just about anything!
Step 3: Cut your eggs out...

Step 4: String the garland together. (I just used a sewing needle and thread.)

We have really enjoyed ours this year, and have gotten several compliments from people on it. Hope you enjoy yours next year!
